P.I.E. FRD03-POD/S
2004-2006
Ford-to-iPOD® Interface
Includes 16-pin & 20-pin Wiring Harness!
(See Specific Vehicle Application List below)

Use the factory radio's Satellite radio controls to operate the iPOD®!

The PIE FRD03-POD/S iPOD® interface connects to the rear of the factory radio of select 2004-2006 Ford, Lincoln or Mercury vehicles with built in Satellite radio control functions (Please see Specific Vehicle Application List below), and is designed to allow you to control your iPod directly with the factory radio using the Ford Sirius satellite radio controls, providing you with a more interactive Ford iPod interface. This iPOD interface will also charge the iPod while the iPOD is connected, plus gives you the option of controlling the iPOD through the factory radio, or controlling the iPOD through the iPOD itself, providing you the flexibility to use your iPOD the way you want to use it!

Installation is simple, as the interface plugs into the satellite radio connector at the rear of your factory radio using the appropriate vehicle specific cable that comes with the interface. You then simply plug the iPOD into the provided iPOD dock cable and start enjoying your iPod music library.

Your factory radio will have either the 16-pin satellite radio connector, shown in the image at right, which is one of three connectors in Ford's "Phase II" 8-pin/16-pin/24-pin connector configuration. Or your factory radio will have the 20-pin connector, also shown at right, which is one of two connectors in Ford's standard 20-pin/16-pin connector configuration. You can click on either image to see a larger photo of the rear of each radio showing both connector configurations.

Depending on what factory options your vehicle has, there could already be a factory wiring harness plugged into the 16-pin or the 20-pin satellite radio connector. The wiring harnesses that comes with this interface device is designed with a 'Y' connector that allows you to reconnect any factory wiring harness, if so equipped, once the interface is installed, keeping all existing factory options functional. If there is no factory wiring harness plugged into the 16-pin or the 20-pin satellite radio connector, the female end of the 'Y' harness will remain empty after installation.

The factory radio’s Sirius satellite controls will be utilized to operate the iPod, allowing you to navigate by artist, album, playlist, and song title. In addition, your factory radio will display iPOD text fields in the following manner:

Artist Name in 12 characters

Song title in 16 characters, shown 8 characters at a time when song is first selected and then 12 characters shown when doing a songs search

Album Title in 12 characters

Playlist Name in 12 characters

Compatible with the iPOD Classic, iPOD mini, iPOD nano, G3, G4, and G5 iPODs, plus the 1st generation iPhone™. Note: This iPOD interface is NOT compatible with the 3G or the new 3G/S iPhone, nor the new iPOD Touch 2G. It IS compatible with the iPOD nano-chromatic 4G, and the new iPOD Classic 80gig and 160gig. However, with the iPOD nano-chromatic 4G, and the new iPOD Classic 80gig and 160gig, you will need to use the CC-iPD 5V charging adapter for these two iPODs to charge when connected.
