I like your Honda Element.  It is so cool.

What components did you use for that setup?  It looks very simple but very efficient.

I’m guessing the USB/Firewire combo cable, and mount,and some sort of firewire car adapter.

Any plans on showing us how?

I’m using a SiK Imp cable, because it provides Audio Line Out and FireWire. I’m also using the SiK power adapter and a male to male mini jack (1/8”) stereo cable. You can find a mini jack cable at any Radio Shack or stereo accessory store. In this set-up I’m using SendStation’s mini jack cable included with their recently released Audio Line Out PocketDock. The iPod mount is from Pro-Clip.

You’re right, it’s a simple and effective solution, but I’d like to manage the wires better.

Check our Reviews page for reviews on the Imp cable and PocketDock adapter.

Sweet! And yay for Honda. It must cost, like, a whole $3 for a car manufacturer to add an audio-in jack to a car. I don’t understand why it’s not a much more common feature.

i agree as well, but think the cost is probably closer to 3cents :p

We have an element too, not only is it iPod friendly, it is tall people friendly, and dirty camper friendly, I’d definately recommend it!

Hi.  :)  I’m new at this, I just got my U2 IPOD in the mail today.  I have a Honda Element too!  :)

I am a bit confused on what I need to go buy.  I think I am understanding to get the cable, adaptor, & stereo cable - right?

But, what is the send station mini jackcable thing? do i need that…?

THANKS!!!!!!

I prefer the setup on this page:
www.hondaelement.org/

This uses the Belkin power adapter that has a line out on the base of it. One less cable dangling along your dashboard.

Here’s a picture of what I’m talking about:
