Hiya,

Just wondering if it would be possible to fit an audio jack point like we have in the Fez to an older fez a Mk5 ? as my sis wants to use her ipod on it but the radio one she got is pretty awful.

Cheers,

Tom

No sorry.

You can get those things that you can listen to your Ipod through the radio though.

Or she could get an FM modulator - it uses the same principle as the iTrip and whht not, but goes directly into the radio.

So you still tune into a station, but it is 'broadcast' directly onto the aerial cable before the radio, so the signal/quality is a lot better

isnt this illegal in theory as you are transmitting without a proper licence??

They used to be illegal, but their use was legalised in December 2006, providing they are manufactured to the correct standard:
