Installation Guide - iPod Adapter (Dension iPod Car Kit) 1

Installing your Dension iPod Car Kit is straightforward and is slightly different depending on the kit you have ordered for your particular vehicle. Read through the options below and if you don't really want to install yourself, at the bottom of the page you'll find details of finding a professional installer in your area. Many customers prefer to leave it to someone with the experience to ensure a successful installation first time.

*Full installation instructions and user manual are supplied with all Dension iPod Ice>Link Plus versions. Average installation time by customers is between 15 and 60 minutes.

Mounting the Active Cradle:

If you have selected an option that includes the Active Cradle as opposed to the Dock Cable, then you will need a mounting bracket to position the cradle on your dash providing easy access to your iPod.

We recommend mounting the Active Cradle using the supplied screws with the addition of a Dashmount Mounting Bracket or Brodit Mounting Bracket. This ensures a neat, safe and professional installation.

Dashmount brackets are vehicle-specific damage-free mounting brackets and they are made for your particular car make and model, ensuring a perfect fit. They are easily installed in minutes without any drilling. This protects your dash from multiple ugly holes. They provide a quick, easy and secure installation option, giving an integrated look with your car dash and interior. Detailed easy installation instructions are included with each bracket.

If your vehicle is not listed, select the universal bracket option as this is compatible with any vehicle. A universal bracket has an arm that simply slides into position at one side of your radio. Choose between 10mm, 30mm & 45mm arm lengths depending on whether your radio is flush with your dash or recessed. A flush radio would use a 10mm Bracket and a radio recessed deep in the dash would use a 45mm bracket.
