Review for IPOD INTERFACE CABLE part no. 82211853

SilverKK09 · **Posted:** Wed Feb 04, 2009 12:37 pm

I bout this interface cable from lee parts and shipping to 78041 was 96.91
Its just a very simple cable and the install could not be easier.
But the interface is awesome! when you first plug your ipod into the ipod's dongle, youll see a chrysler dodge jeep logo, and afterward it will change to a JEEP logo on your ipods screen (VERY COOL) (this logo feature does not work on iphone/ipodtouch, but they do work with the interface)

youll be able to control the ipod from your stereo and from the steering wheel buttons... itll display a new tab on your nav radio (iPod) and youll see the song's info on the screen... very cool!
you cant play videos or record music from your ipod to your mygig hard drive

Now for the fun part The installation manual is freaking confusing since it does not say which radios would be compatible with the cable.... Im almost 100% possitive that it will work on any radio no matter the model (08kk or 09kk)
Just look at the cable itself... nothing special about it.... itd be nice if someone without a nav radio could give it a try...
Here are the pics

Sounds like my Alpine unit. If anyone has a non MyGig system, I highly recommend. I would be glad to post pics.

from wat I understand you have to have uConnect on a non my gig radio for this work. I keep waiting for someone to prove me wrong though.

I have this part on order for my jeep however the salesmen said i needed to purchase two parts:

Ipod Integration 82211853 - $87.15
Ipod Integration 82210787AB - $25.65

I was told that the first part goes to the glove box and the second part goes from the glove box to the ipod.

Is this just a ploy to get more money for accessories?

you dont need the 25.65 cable......... if you have mygig then the only one you need is the one I bought (the 87.15)

The dealer installed the wrong part (i think). This part I plug my iPod in the glove-box and have to use a radio frequency to listen to the ipod and I still need to use the iPod to change track selections.

Where did you purchase your part from?

Do you have the mygig or a reg radio?

I have a 2008 with the MyGig radio ... Will this work for me? Right now I have my iPod hooked up with the 1/8" jack and the sound is fine but I would like to control my iPod from my radio.

Anyone with an 08 Liberty with a RER radio?

I went to another dealership today on my way home, and ordered the correct iPod part. We will see in about a week what arrives. At the dealership I purchased the part from said that the part was unavailable and the FM Modulator part was the one that MOPAR sent. Funny I had no problem ordering the part at the other dealership.

I just hope that it works.

I also spoke to a rep Harmon / Becker yesterday. He told me that I had the right part number and that part is what I needed. He also told me if the Parts dept says that they can't order the part that I could have him call him directly.

Now the question I need answered. The salesmen ordered and put the ipod cable in for free (the original FM Modulator part). I gave him the part number I wanted but he put this other part in. Should I take the iPod part I ordered and ask that it be installed for free, or at this point is that asking too much? I was very thankful that originally he offered to pay for and put the iPod cable in for free but it was the wrong part. I gave him the correct part number but his parts guy was the one who said that part could not be ordered and the FM Modulator part would need to be installed.

Any update on if this will work on the 08's? Could it be the radio software (firmware updates) and not the year?

SilverKK09 what version software does your radio have?

spolebitski · **Posted:** Mon Mar 02, 2009 8:21 am

Waiting on the part to see if it actually is the part I need. The salesmen claimed the parts guy ordered this part number but the FM Modulator part arrived.

I've got the part from the dealer. It looks the same as the picture at the top of the thread.

worked like a charm ... it is working great! The part worked with out any problems. I suggest everyone that uses an ipod and mygig get this part.

What year is your KK? What version firmware do you have with your MyGig?

spolebitski · **Posted:** Fri Mar 06, 2009 9:44 pm

It is an 2009 built after Jan 26th, 2009, after the plants reopened.

As for firmware I think it is 1.055. Now I do have the question about firmware will a 2008 RER radio be higher in firmware or am I that much behind. I know a lot of people say that 9.0XX is the most recent.

Mike08Liberty · **Posted:** Fri Mar 06, 2009 9:48 pm

You can't have a version 1.xxx ... I don't think that exist

To check press MENU then System Setup then System Information ... You want to look at the numbers under Application.

Firmware version 9.807 is the latest out right now

I am telling you what is on the screen:

Application 1.055
Database RS12-N207 0807
Gracenotes 881
SDS 153326
System 68160083.8

In addition their was a sticker on the top of the radio (today I saw it when the iPod cable was installed that said 1.055.
