thrillz21 Posted April 15, 2008 Report Share Posted April 15, 2008 I have a chance to get an 60gb 5th generation Ipod with a cracked screen. I will only be using this in the car with my avic-d3. Everything should still work right? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
HiFiSi Posted April 15, 2008 Report Share Posted April 15, 2008 Yeah, I don't see why not. You don't need the screen to work since you control it from the D3... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sprawl Posted April 15, 2008 Report Share Posted April 15, 2008 if it's really cheap it'll be perfect. put the ipod and the ipod cable out of sight and youv'e got yourself an almost permanent MP3 hard drive for it. as long as you're not watching videos where you need to see the screen to start, your D3 does everything you'd do on the screen anyways. heck, the D3 even takes over for the ipod and doesnt let you use the clickwheel to control it when plugged in.

thrillz21 Posted April 15, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 15, 2008 I though that you can make the Ipod always send the video out by default through one of the menus. I was going to ask someone to tell me what to click to get that setting to be automatically... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
whtcrxghst Posted April 15, 2008 Report Share Posted April 15, 2008 You still have to choose what movie you want to play from the ipod Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mlarco52 Posted April 15, 2008 Report Share Posted April 15, 2008 dont think the video part will work out that well for you since you gotta select the video from the ipod that you wanna play and you have to go into the settings to set it to play on the d3...but the music part will work for you if it is a good deal then go ahead and buy it.....damn big storage device for songs just tuck it away in your glove box you'll love it.
