Introduction

Many Jaguar owners looking for a simple way to connect Apple iPods will be pleased to know the iP-JAG97 adapter does exactly that. The iP-JAG97 adapter provides a 30-pin dock connector for charging and playback from any Apple 30-pin iPod and iPhone. This adapter connects directly to the CD changer port at the radio and replaces CD changer (if present). To retain CD changer playback or for a Bluetooth wireless solution, see our A2D-JAG97
See Frequently Asked question at the end of this guide for more details.
