Red face Samsung Note 2 - Adapter for my car?

Ok so I have been searching high and low for the adapter below. I know I can use the RCA connections and USB for the charge/audio out. But I was wondering if this will allow me to change music before I order this Via the connector in the center console that was used originally for my Ipod

I do NOT want to have to replace the stereo system just to have my stupid controls from my steering wheel...

If that isn't possible any other ideas for my music?

You'd be my hero if you have a solution!

This is the adapter I found:
Wholesale 30 Pin Female to Mini 5 Pin USB Male Data Charge Adapter for iPhone 4S iPad iPod - Black - iPhone USB Cables

I know the adapter will FIT - Just dont know if it will WORK!

So my husband found a fix! This might help out more than just me, AND it makes it a wireless connection!!! How awesome is that?!?

Step 1:
Amazon.com: Scosche passPORT Charging Adapter for iPod and iPhone (Black): MP3 Players & Accessories Amazon.com: Scosche passPORT Charging Adapter for iPod and iPhone (Black): MP3 Players & Accessories

Step 2:
Amazon.com: Patuoxun Bluetooth A2DP Music Audio Receiver Adapter for Bose Sounddock and 30-Pin iPod iPhone Dock Speaker: Computers & Accessories Amazon.com: Patuoxun Bluetooth A2DP Music Audio Receiver Adapter for Bose Sounddock and 30-Pin iPod iPhone Dock Speaker: Computers & Accessories

Between the two it seems to be the fix I was looking for- Now to try it out I will let you guys know what I find out in a few weeks once these arrive etc etc...

which i-pod is it that you're trying to charge? you have the oem cable to connect the i-pod thought the armrest, right? that gives you control via the steering wheel. what it might not do, however, is charge the i-pod (if it's a newer generation unit). for that you'll need the adapter (or get an older generation i-pod to leave in the car). i have one of the scosche passport adapters i don't use anymore. pm me if you're interested.

there are lots of posts about this on the forum. do a search and i'm sure you'll find them. good luck!

kkitten,

Looks like you have a Samsung Note according to your title. The adapter you are looking at is only for the iphone - the connector is specific to only the iphone - and will not plug into your phone.

Since you mention the RCA inputs, I'm guessing you have either and 08 or 09 G. I have an 09 and wish the connector that came with mine was universal and would work with my android phone rather than just the iphone. Its crazy that all the car manufacturers seem to think the iphone is the only phone people use these days and want to build in connections specific to only it.

Very frustrating.

Hey you bought the wrong stuff.
You can't do it through the iPod connection. Must be rca aux.

Get a Bluetooth to 3.5 audio jack device and a 3.5 to RCA wire and ur done.

It's really cheap stuff. I suggest you return all that other stuff cause it only works with iPods/iPhones.
