How can I hook up my E260 MP3 player up to my Z2? I may end up doing the IPOD at a later time but for now would like to hook this up.

 

Thanks in advance.

Option one:

Same as http://www.avic411.com/forum/viewtopic. ... highlight=

Basically, just a "headphone to RCA" cable between your MP3 player and the A/V input on the Z2

 

Option two:

CD-UB100

While it's not listed as specifically compatible with the Z2 on the site, the Z1/Z2 is listed in the compatible devices (Group 4) page 11 in the instruction manual. Group 4 devices have full control via touch-screen, which is THE reason to go with this over a simple audio cable. Basically, you plug in any USB device THAT SHOWS UP AS A DRIVE IN YOUR COMPUTER and it can play the MP3 files off it. I'd HIGHLY recommend reading the owner's manual first though. I've never used it so I can't speak from experience.

You know, no more expensive than that is, I may give that a try. It sure beats having to go buy an iPod when I have a ton of flash drives laying around.
