Richmond, Virginia | Hey guys
I have a buddy who owns a Vision that is needing the same adapter that I purchased that goes between the Ipod and the Vision cable that allows the unit to charge on the bike. I cannot locate
my paperwork or the website where I ordered the adapter from. Im sure that several of you out there have the same adapter. If someone can email me the link to the website that would
be great. Thanks

Richmond, Virginia | thanks guys, this adapter is for those of us who purchased the original wiring harness from Victory last year when the packaging said that it "charged" the unit which it DOESNT, yet Victory refuses to replace for all of us... Too bad we cant send them the bill for the adapter we are forced to buy |

| Oh, Apple changed there connector, surprise, but Victory should foot the bill? Ask Apple for a new cable, they are the ones that caused the problem. |

San Antonio, TX | Apple changed the spec for the iPod in 2005 and Victory built the radio after that to the old spec. Whoever designed the radio should have been using the current spec for the design of the cable.
It would have been set to the new specification if Victory pursued making the Vision an official Apple iPod accessory. Maybe thats why it is not an official Apple iPod accessory. |

New Bohemia, VA | radioteacher - 2009-04-16 11:48 AM Apple changed the spec for the iPod in 2005 and Victory built the radio after that to the old spec.

It would have been set to the new specification if Victory pursued making the Vision an official Apple iPod accessory. Maybe thats why it is not an official Apple iPod accessory. What? The Vision is NOT an iPod accessory? I thought it was I ordered it offline with my generation iTouch. Best accessory I ever bought for it. The only problem I'm having though is getting the music video's to play on that little screen on the console. Does anyone know where I can get that adapter? |

| Let me see if I'm understanding what is being said. The newer gen Nano's won't "charge" off the stock Vision IPod adapter and need additional charger adapter for this purpose. However it will power and play off the Vision with the IPod adpter without the charger adapter. Did I get that right?
I have the 4GB Nano so I'd need this charger adapter? |

Aubrey, TX | if you have a 4th gen nano..you will need the adapter..3rd gen or prior will charge with the cable without adapter. |
