Try an xcarlink ipod adaptor. It lets you keep your 6 CD changer but also have ipod connectivity. Really simple to fit as well.

It doesn't say that it is ipad compatible, but it's iphone 4 compatible so I would assume that it would be ok...

check it out: http://www.xcarlink.co.uk/product.php?p ... t=2&page=1 is the one for the 9N3

Mate as far as i know the iPad is not compatible. I tried to connect mine to my Alpine head unit after 3 hours of loading my music on to it for a message to appear reading "this is not compatible" ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.

if you find one do let us all know

Thanks
