Default iPod Nano and itrip

Anyone else using these with the factory monsoon? Of all my cars, it sounds the crappiest in my SS. Is anyone else out there using this with more success? Mine just always has a lot of static....more than other cars.

Can any auxillary input be added to the factory head unit?

You can and RCA AUX-IN with a PIE GM9-AUX.

Here is how I added XM to my stock Monsoon:
(via the GM9-AUX)

Somtimes the GM9-AUX doesn't work at first, just wait a minute and it will start working.

Here is a trouble-shooting guide I put together:

There are also alternatives that work directly with the iPod, but I know nothing about them other than they are more expensive (although "slicker" for the iPod) solutions. You might want to look into them and decide for yourself.

Yeah I had that setup with the I-trip in my car too and it sounded horrible. So I put a new head unit in and I dont have any static now.
