This is probably a repost, sorry, I tried googling forever.

New owner of a 2007 si sedan with stock radio, no nav. Does honda have a cable that will connect my 4th Nano ipod and allow me to control with stock radio?

If so does it work well and with steering wheel controls, display, etc?

Am I better off going with the honda cable or one of those aftermarket ones kits?

Help! Need info!

'09 and later non-navi model has iPod integration.

There won't be any cheap/easy way to do it.

You could buy a stock navi unit for $600-700 (see them for sale on this site often) and put that in. That's the only way I know to get the iPod integration you're after.

My '08 Si has an AUX input that works with my ipod Touch. I still have to control everything with the ipod itself, but sound quality is good. I also have NAV option. I really prefer to use the memory card instead of the ipod. I have an 8meg CF card that you can store a ton of songs on. Love it!

Is this one a genuine honda part?

or aftermarket? says allows control through stock radio.

Yeah I dont' have nav or usb option. It's a 2007 civic si and I also have the aux port. I don't like using that though, my goal is to use a the radio controls to control the ipod. So much easier. I got spoiled with my last car where I had it setup like this with all aftermarket parts.

I'm searching for something that works with stock radio because i don't want to hack this car up with aftermarket car audio.

I'm pretty sure honda makes a cable that plugs into a connector under the console/lower dash plastic. Not sure if its for my year and what exact cable it is though.

when I had my 7th gen I used a bonus check to get a new head unit installed

I'd rather have that type thing done professionally

there are even better products available now

I got an ipod interface from pac audio and works great on the SI (not navi).
It displays text, keeps your ipod charged, and you can change your songs from the steering wheel.

You can get the same one a little cheaper from the bay!
Hope it helps!

oh ok I get it now, thanks guys! Hmmm maybe I should just save up for an aftermarket headunit or nav. That way I can get get nav and bluetooth, etc.

Fits perfectly in the lower console opening next to the aux in port. I tucked the lines back to the arm rest and plugged in the unit there. With a 90 degree aux in line it's pretty discrete without hacking into anything. Plus you get bluetooth.
