Not that I'm trying to argue with you, but he specifically said that a factory cd changer would also disable the fader. I'm just trying to figure out if I should try again with another device similar to the icruze to connect my ipod throught the cd changer port (my hope being that a different type/brand won't mess with the fader) or give up and by an Alpine or Kenwood head unit. Your proof that the factory cd changer doesn't disable the fader gives me hope that I can find a different Ipod connector for my current system.

By the way, the icruze is a really neat device if anyone is considering an ipod connection (assuming it is compatible with your system!). I like it because it uses the headunit to control the ipod, much safer in my opinion than fiddling with the ipod itself. On sale too 149$ plus a cable that matches your car.
