OK people, read this review, it may save you some time/frustration. This adapter works fine if your Alpine is a later Versalink Ai-Net Alpine model. You can set the Aux Input to On in your menu. If you have a CTA series Alpine, this will still work, but you have to do a couple extra steps. First, you need to wire in a switch in order to short the pink/black stripe wire to ground when you want to listen to the auxiliary input. You flip the switch to not ground the pink/black when you want to listen to radio. In the CTA's menu, you need to turn the Mute option Off. That's it, works perfect. Volume level from my Droid streaming Pandora was roughly the same volume as the radio. All is good for about $10.

Using this on my Alpine CDA 9805 and works perfect! Someone said that the metal will cause noise, I just wrapped the connections in electrical tape. Problem solved! For my stereo, I had to hold down the F button for 3 seconds, then used channel scroll to get to aux and turn it on to be part of my source button, DONE! Works like a champ!

Product is great! Works perfectly, got it faster than anticipated Connection is nice and firm to not fall out of the radio.

Iphone headphone input for my old Alpine. Installed easily and works as stated. No static, great signal. We've used this in the past in other vehicles and it's always worked. (we use this instead of the iphone/ipod connector because we connect other stuff to it such as dvd players, laptops etc.

You really can't beat this for the price. Easy to install on my Alpine CDA-9853 and has worked well so far.

It's not the best quality, but for the price you can't go wrong.

Five stars.

I bought this item and it worked fine with my Alpine. However, it doesn't work as well as an adapter that has an iPod plug. So I went to eBay and found a 5V adapter from a company called "deluxe-item" in Hong Kong. This has both an iPod plug AND a regular stereo 1/8" mini. The advantage of this setup is that you also hook this up to any 12v lead and ground which is activated by turning the ignition/acc on. Thus, it also charges the iPod. The quality was far better than I expected and it included an inline fuse. The only downside is that shipping from Hong Kong takes a couple of weeks. I paid $12.99 for the item. I guess I'm one of the lucky ones that only had to turn the AUX on in the setup menu.

I purchased this to use with a Alpine iDA-X305S reciever; the product works great. Make sure whatever cable you connect to this cable is well shielded or you may get a high pitch hum in you audio.

I bought two, one for each vehicle. I have after-market Alpines installed, and these are simply perfect. I did not even have to pull my radios out. I just felt for ports behind radios under the dashboard and plugged in. Simple! Clear Ipod connection.

I got this product, Paired with an RCA-to-5mm Jack cable, to replace my air-play for my iPod, which, because of apple's way of doing business, was not compatible with my iPhone. This allows me to play songs at a much higher volume without so much as a hint of static interference. Sound quality has improved so much, it's a mystery to me how I did without this for so long. and best of all, I can now control volume with my alpine receiver or on the iPod/iPhone. It gives you the liberty to cconnect ANY mp3/mp4 player out there, and I even hooked up my laptop to the headset output...

Good Product!

The product got within the time given. It works just fine, it wasn't exactly as pictured but im not complaining. Its just a cable that will allow you to listen to your mp3. Usually cables are cables and it doesn't matter the brand name.
