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

dstyle

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!

Rob,

How did you get the Bose head unit in the Nismo? Did you order that from the factory that way? Buy it & install it after the fact? What about the speakers?

I thought (maybe I'm wrong) that the Nismo only came w/ the none-Bose stereo, thus no sub, etc.

Lonnie:

I agree it is a pain to scroll through long lists, but I have learned to live with it. There really is no way around it.

Jim:

I don't own a NISMO. I own a 2009 Touring with aero kit. I added an OEM NISMO cat-back exhaust system a few months after purchase. Maybe that's what your referring to?

I still haven't gotten around to adding the HD Radio adaptor. Although I have a garage, it isn't air conditioned, and the heat has been unbearable the last few weekends.

I've had issues once in a while (maybe once or twice a month) where when i start the car, my stereo does not recognize the Media Gateway. Only way I've found to fix that is to turn the car off and back on. That doesn't sound exactly like your problem dstyle.... but thought i'd share just in case it is somewhat similar to your problem.

Good Luck.

Thanks Adam for the tip but I've found the problem. It was me... I had the switches on the unit the other way round! .

Sorry guys! Works perfectly now!

On occasion, I have the same issue. Really bizarre. I can't figure out why it happens.

Am I missing where the HD radio DIY instructions link is?

I actually never got around to installing the HD radio adapter. When I did the initial install I realized I was missing an antenna extension cable. I did get the cable, but lost interest in having HD radio, so I never bothered with it. Sorry.

Just curious, thanks!

Just curious, has anyone used this DIY and part lately on something like a 2012/2013 370z?

I have a 12. Nothing changed.

Do you see "iPod" option when you change channel? I can see song name or other info when I m at "iPod". Sometimes mine does the xm channel thing too, but it will fixes itself after I restart the car.

Nope, I haven't seen "ipod" come up on the display at all. I'll play around with it some more, and even open it back up next weekend.
