looking advice on mounting my ipod, somewhere on the dash, any advice/pics would be great, its for a 6n2

Not sure if this will be any help...
I havent got a mount as such, but I have the VW Ipod cable that lets you play/charge your Ipod. The cable runs from the back of the headunit into the little cubby hole underneath the lights switch through the fuse box. I think its quite a good place, as its not very visable, and you dont need a mount as you can change tracks etc through the headunit.

And there's one on eBay for the next 4.5 hours:

Mine's tucked away in the glovebox!

Mine's in the glovebox too, wire tucks in the corner of the hinge like this one:


Or you could drill a hole like Si did:

How hard is this to do?

I bought myself one of those tape things for my ipod, but my cassette player is broke, just says disc error when i put in any tape, with or without a cable.

Also, the sound quality is better this way isnt it?

Thanks

Yes the quality is full, as appose to the dodgy quality you get out of a cassette player. Dead easy mate, just pop your headunit out and run the lead !

Good idea this, however can you still use the cd changer and how much is the lead from vw

thanks ryan

How hard is it to remove the head unit Tim?

Too seconds if you have the right keys! Are you referring to an OEM unit? or aftermarket?

oem head-unit.

been told there quite hard to remove

my cassette wont accept tapes, so no way i can have my ipod in my car.

OEM Unit is a piece of p*** to remove.

Indeed. Just need two removal keys (halfords, vw, screwfix etc), or two strips of credit card or similar cut like this:
