Clarion iPod Interface EA1251

[Rick_J]

Im selling my Clarion EA1251 iPod Interface as I no longer require it (changed head unit). This works with any pre 2007 Clarion unit that uses the CeNET bus. I got this in the summer as a present but never installed it as I wanted to finalise my install plans and they changed so it has to go. The kit consists of the items shown in the image and fixings:

• Bring the convenience of the Apple iPod portable music player into your car with the EA1251 iPod adaptor
• Simply connect the adaptor to any (pre 2007) Clarion CeNET compatible radio and press the receiver's 'source' button
• Can be 'daisy-chained' with CeNET CD changer or Bluetooth adaptor with accessory connecting cable CCA-519
• The adaptor allows control of iPod playback features and view brief MP3 tags (version 1) on the Clarion receiver's display.
• The EA1251 even provides power for your iPod and charges its battery.
• Suitable for use with 3rd generation and later iPod models
• Cable lengths: control box to iPod 2.0m, control box to head unit 2.5m
• Control box dimensions: 110 x 30 x 100 (mm)
• Supplied complete with screw and Velcro control box fixings

ive had a quick look and it currently for sale at TheBassBin.co.uk for £70 so will say £50. Please PM if you are interested. Thanks for looking

does it work with the factory 406 clarion radios?

[Rick_J]

not sure if the factory spec ones use the round C-bus connection or the modern square Ce-NET one - have a look at the lead into the CD changer to tell...

is it hard to take out the head unit? can I install by myself?
cheers,

[Rick_J]

the head unit is very easy to take out with the clarion keys, easiest way i found was to take the side panel off the centre console, insert the keys and they push from behind. the interface just plugs into the CeNET socket and hey presto, turn it on and thats it

couple of small screwdrivers will handle taking the head unit out
