When I emailed them about my 2006 Camry LE with the JBL in-dash 6 disc changer, they said the Neo Ion would work fine. So, I would think it would probably work in yours too.
After reading various posts about the lackluster integration of the different ipod interfaces, I think I will just get the Blitzsafe adapter. It still goes through like a changer/aux connection rather than FM, but it just doesn't give the radio any control of the ipod. A lot of people say the various units don't always control the ipod well from the wheel/radio and some don't even display info on the radio. I'll stick with the ipod controls for now.

I would like to use the same implementation, but I was wondering: since my headunit has a built-in changer, would it even have a changer port in the back? And if it did, would connecting something to it foul up the actual changer?
The mp3YourCar.com website says the iOn is compatible with 2006 Solaras, but I suspect that since the compatibility tester doesn't make any distinction between SE and SLE, and since the SE can have a headunit without a built-in changer, that they are giving the most accomodating, if imprecise, response possible.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
Suggestions for alternative solutions are welcome as well. But please don't bother suggesting a FM modulator. I have already been there and done that and was unimpressed.
The headunit has a cassette deck, I suppose I could use the cassette adapter solution (although I'd not get the advantage of controlling the iPod via the steering wheel buttons), anybody have any experience with those and can testify as to the quality?
Thanks!
