I have an old Alpine, CDA-7930 deck.

I have an opportunity to pick up an IPOD, this deck has CD changer controls, anyone know if Alpine makes an adaptor that will work with this deck? Price also, roughly? Thanks!

Okay, so just get an Alpine aux-in adaptor then?

Alpine has an MBus to mini plug adaptor. I have one of those. It came free with a purchase of an Alpine refurb unit I bought for my winter beater.

I bought the Alpine from Visions, so maybe check with them?

I was told the adaptor only works if the deck you have has aux source selection.

Visions ad claimed the adaptor to be worth 30 bucks.
