DIY: Bose Touring Stereo (NON NAV) iPod Interface Upgrade: iSimple Media Gateway

Augustus · 01-16-2012, 11:15 AM

Excellent write-up & photos! Thanks.

I've got a PAC ISNI572 on order. Looking forward to having iPod connectivity in my '11 Touring no-Nav very soon. Kind of absurd that iPod connectivity isn't standard for a car in this price bracket unless you cough up for the Nav. But at least it's fairly easily added.

A couple of quick questions though, specifically about using the interface with an iPhone 4 or 4S...

Does the interface work at all with Pandora? Or is it strictly for iPhone/iPod on-device music?

And anyone used this with an iCloud-enabled device? Does it just show you downloaded music when browsing by artist/genre/track? Or does it show all iCloud stuff? What does it do when you try to play a non-downloaded track?

Thanks!
