The previous thread on this topic has been closed. However, since then I found something different relating to previous news that the Nissan iPod interface would not work with the 6th generation Maxima.

Performance Nissan Parts indicates that the iPod interface is available for select 05-06 Maximas. See here: http://www.mynismo.com/products/?id=2593

The general compatability requirement is that you have to have the Bose CD6 and no Satellite radio. Allegedly Nissan is working on expanding their availability to past models.

Anyway, it was worth mentioning.

 

Good info SHIFT, Thanks, waiting for the 04 Max to pop up on their list.

 

Looks like it is no good for me. I have the sat radio factory installed. I am looking for some options to use my new 30gig vid Ipod within the max.

 

I would also like a good solution for hooking up an iPOD when you also have factory SAT...

 

i believe this solution was out for quite sometime now....and im pretty sure a couple of members already use it...the only problem that i know of with this is you cannot use your steering wheele controls to switch tracks nor does the info display on your screen.

 

cool thread.

 

I think this is the reason why most 6 gen owners are interested in the OEM interface. It is most compatible with the car's stock controls.

I would think that Nissan is still developing this, so those of you who can't use this option yet, don't lose hope, I bet Nissan will release more options for this in the near future.
