SUMMARY

DETAILS
This USB Interface by Grom Audio is a state of the art product that allows you to directly connect your USB thumb drive through the auxiliary input port (normally used for CD Changers and/or satellite radio) of your factory radio. (See more details below.) The cable that connects this to your radio is a T-harness, so it has a plug to allow you, in most cases, to retain a factory auxiliary input currently connected to the radio. The cable that connects to your USB drive is 3 feet long, so you'll have plenty of routing options. 

If you have an Android phone or tablet, you can use this interface to play music from it through the car radio. Song title, artist and album will display on the radio. You will also have some limited controls from the radio and/or the steering wheel controls. In addition, it will charge the device. You will have to download the free AALinQ App from the Google Play App Market to utilize this feature. You will also need a USB cable to connect the phone to the interface. PLEASE NOTE: this is for playback of music only. Calling features are not supported unless you purchase the Bluetooth kit that is optional. We HIGHLY recommend you visit the manufacturer's website if you have questions regarding the Android interface features.

If you have an Apple iPod or iPhone, you can use this interface to play music from it through the car radio. You will also have some limited controls from the radio and/or the steering wheel controls. In addition, it will charge the device. You will need the OEM Apple USB cable to connect your Apple product to the interface. PLEASE NOTE: this is for playback of music only. Calling features are not supported unless you purchase the Bluetooth kit that is optional. We HIGHLY recommend you visit the manufacturer's website if you have questions regarding iPod interface features.

If you want to direct connect a device using a standard 3.5mm stereo mini headphone jack, you can do that too.  We're including the Grom 35MDN cable with this bundle.  We're also including a dash-mountable USB/Aux extension cable so you can eliminate wires hanging out from under your dash.  Use it with either the included bracket or drill a hole in your console/dash/glove-box for
a professional, OEM type install.  Plug your device right into the extension.  No more ugly wires that are hard to hide!

This product is capable of working in remote CD Changer or satellite mode, making it compatible in a greater variety of vehicles. As delivered, it typically operates in CD Changer (CDC) mode. Your radio must have a SAT/AUX, XM/AUX or AUX button AND your vehicle must be on the Application or Compatibility List in this ad.  Use of a given mode will require disconnection of a factory device using that same mode.  For instance, if your radio does not have satellite capability but does have remote CD changer control capability, you can use this product but your remote CD changer (separate from the radio) would have to be disconnected, if so equipped.  Likewise, if your radio does not have remote CD changer controls but does have satellite capability, this will work in satellite mode but would require disconnection of your factory satellite system, if so equipped.  It should be noted that there will be no text or numerical display if this device is used in CD Changer mode.  Also of note: changing the mode of operation from the delivered mode will require a firmware update from the gromaudio website.  We recommend you contact tech support for the manufacturer and/or visit the gromaudio website to determine exactly how it's going to function in your vehicle with your options.
OPTIONAL CABLE INFORMATION 
Unlike some competitor's products, this interface includes TWO extra input ports so you can add up to two other devices with the use of additional cables. One such cable, the 35MDN aux input, is included in this particular bundle.  Another is optional and is available in a separate listing:
  • If you purchase the Bluetooth kit (item GABTD in a separate listing), you can connect a Bluetooth enabled cell phone (iPhone, Android or regular) that supports HFP (Hands Free Profiles) and listen to the conversation over your car speakers, while speaking through the microphone that comes with the Bluetooth kit. You can also use it to stream music from your phone wirelessly if your phone supports A2DP. What's more, you can control the music on your phone from your radio and/or steering wheel controls using AVRCP wireless audio controls. The Bluetooth kit is specific to the Grom interface, so you do have to buy the Grom version if you want Bluetooth.
We recommend you visit the gromaudio website (and/or contact tech support) to determine exactly how it's going to function in your vehicle with your options.
