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

djtone · 04-25-2012, 09:01 AM

I'm curious if anyone knows if the Ipod Harness ([284H2] HARN-iPod SYSYTEM) will connect to the Factory Bose System. I've asked 4 people from Nissan and no one seems to know the answer.

They keep telling me, "it should work..." It's a special order so they won't let you return it if it doesn't.

I wish it was that easy to add an iPod to the Bose system.... i believe that cable will only connect up to the Nissan navigation units.

I was kind of thinking the same thing. I'm amazed how many folks at the Nissan dealership couldn't give me an answer.

Appreciate it!

To my knowledge, this will not work.

Thanks Spartan for your DIY! It was very helpful and just installed my kit tonight!

I do however have one issue and was wondering if anyone has come across an issue like this. The only option I have when scrolling via the 'Sat' button is 'Aux1'. I have lost my XM Radio function and I can't get 'IPOD' to show. Any ideas anyone?

Cheers guys. I have a 2010 370z 40th Ed, if that makes a difference.
Also, thanks again Spartan!
