Default Ipod adapter question on 2nd Gen Nano

Hello:
I got the dealer installed FM transmitter for the Ipod, but even with the adapter sleeve, the connections do not match up with the 2nd generation Nano. Any idea where I can get the proper sized adapter or if they even make one yet? Thanks.
Mike

I don't think they make one, but I could be wrong.

And sorry but you bought a bad product. FM transmitters are horrible. The sound quality is crap and trying to find a station that works well is just as hard.

Good luck.

Are there any other options to play Ipod music other than FM transmitter? Thanks for the speedy response.

For your model Volvo I don't know. But in a general sense yes there are.

I am using a BlitzSafe Ipod Adapter. It plugs into my CD Changer port on the back of my HU and I just tapped a 12V source and boom my Ipod plays through my car stereo. Now I cannot control it with the HU controls. But I don't really care that much.

Sorry fellow XC90 owner. Unless you have the 07 with the auxillary ports you are out of luck. The only option for me is the FM Transmitter. I have an 03 XC90 w/Premium Sound and have researched this for a while. I am trying to find someone that would try playing around with software so that I can put the 07 radio in even though the ECU is different for 03-05 XC90's and the new radio.
