Replying to: jashfield (Apr 01, 2007 11:32 am) man that stinks, but i hope it works out.   I didn't realize that they could install the aux input for you Replies to this message: jashfield (Apr 03, 2007 12:17 am) eldaino (Apr 03, 2007 8:55 am)

Replying to: eldaino (Apr 02, 2007 5:28 am) It's alright, kinda minor compared with how much I'm enjoying the rest of the car.   The dealership is shocked, they say everyone wants the iPod adapter... if it actually worked I'd dig it. Replies to this message: eldaino (Apr 03, 2007 8:55 am)

#52 of 77 Speaker Locations?? Stereo Sound? by alikeith Jun 20, 2007 (1:50 pm)
HI, Just wondering where the speakers are located in the 2 door mdels and the sizes?   Does the stereo sound good for a stock stereo?   Thanks, Alison Replies to this message: eldaino (Jun 21, 2007 5:53 am)

Replying to: alikeith (Jun 20, 2007 1:50 pm) despite what many may say, the stock stereo on the rabbit, while not very powerful, has a nice amount of speakers, and thus sounds nice. Its sounds nicer than the speaker system in my old 06 civic ex, which had two fewer speakers, but 160 watts of power.   i'm not exactly sure of the sizes are, but the locations are as follows (for 2 door models)   On the door itself:   two small (not tweeters) speakers by the door handle and two large (probably 6 inchers) speakers on the bottoms of the door, and 2 tweeters up by the dash.   on the back there are two large speakers by the side armrests and then two small sized speakers on top of that.
#54 of 77 i-Pod functionality issue by shirotori Jul 03, 2007 (1:01 pm)
I'm just wondering how everyones i-Pod adapter with the radio configuration is working. For the first month of owning my Rabbit CD-1 through CD-5 had the first 5 playlists on my i-Pod while CD-6 would have all songs that are on the i-Pod. However, last week the radio basically stopped recognizing the i-Pod. CD 1 through 5 show "Fail" above the pre-set and have no control of the i-Pod. I can still use the i-Pod...still charges and listen to music, but I have to use it manually, not through the radio. I went to the dealership but they weren't sure, so they called the engineers who build the car or something. I got a call today saying that the way it works now is the way it is supposed to, but that doesn't make any sense considering the way it worked before. How is your i-Pod adapter working? Any issues out there? Any advice for me? Thanks Replies to this message: eldaino (Jul 05, 2007 6:51 am)

Replying to: shirotori (Jul 03, 2007 1:01 pm) what your dealer told you is a bunch of bullcrap. it worked that way before and should continue to do so. go to a different dealer, or contact vw of america directly.
#56 of 77 what to do?? by o_rabbit Jul 18, 2007 (11:37 pm)
so im in a bit of a pickle. i want to play my ipod in my 2door 2007 vw rabbit. whats the best option? buy a simple fm transmitter perhaps? also, i used to own a civic in which i bought a 1000 dollar system for (speakers, amp, face plate) but i dont want anyone drilling into my new car to keep these things. should i sell them? if so, where? the system standard in my bunny is perfectly fine for me, nice clear sound and decent bass. i dont need a ghetto fab bumpin car!! also for alikeith: i went into best buy to figure out the sizes of the standard speakers for my current scenario. they have 6 or 6.5 inch ones in the front and 4 or 4.5 inchers in the back...hence the drilling involved if i wanted to keep my recently purchased infinity speakers in my old car. anyhoo HELP!!

Replying to: o_rabbit (Jul 18, 2007 11:37 pm) As far as the FM transmitter is concerned, I had one in my last vehicle and the sound quality was terrible. It was cracky and because it wasn't grounded I got alternator whine along with the music; the faster I drove the more whine I got. Not that that happens to everyone, but that was my experience.
