I want to use this in my car.....it says "with Home Kit". Do I need the Vehicle Dock to enable it in the car?

The actual dock the receiver plugs into is the same, the difference is the antenna and the power cord. Home kit has the desk top antenna and 110volt power cord. Car kit has magnetic roof mount antenna and 12volt power cord.

If you bought the one that says "Home Kit", then it is just for the house. You need to buy the separate kit for vehicles, which comes with a different antenna and car adapter.

Connect the audio cable to your aux connection on your car stereo, and set the phone to "use external speakers" when docked (System/Accessory/Dock).

No, all you need is a power adapter and a cassette audio adapter. If you do not have a cassette player, then you need the dock.

No it is for a car , not a home. I would look for a home stereo EQ. There will be a lot of problems you will encounter trying to make that work, for one, the power supply for the 12 volt unit. There may be a way to do it for someone with good know how. But I think you would be more satisfied with a home unit you can just plug and play.

THis basically for adding XM radio to a car that is incapable of receiving XM, but it can be used in house with a docking station which is an added expense. Its not want you seem to want. Look for a home XMradio.

It didnt work on my infiniti m35x. It also didnt work at all on a bose 30 pin home dock. I dont know if it was just broken or just a pos. My phone recognized it but nothing played. So ill try another cheap option. I wouldn't buy it again obviously.

It will not work in the car, at least not in my car. The head unit, a JVC, tries to read the iPod but can not for whatever reason. I believe it has something to do with not being on a wi-fi net work in the car.As far as sound quality, it is remarkable. It works great on my Sony docking station. I was using a Bluetooth before, which was okay, but Dolry is way better.

Dock uses a USB connection an can be used in any vehicle with that capability

Need to order the car kit. Most local car stereo shops sell these. It is a plastic adapter in which the stereo mounts. also a wiring harness adapter will be required for the paticular vehicle.

It works for me. One thing weird about the dock is that all audio is sent to the the aux jack EXCEPT for phone calls. No sound comes out of the phone speakers unless you make a phone call. You can use the speakerphone function, but the call may not be loud enough for you. So, if you have the phone connected to the dock, you need to have either the AUX or Bluetooth selected on your car stereo and the unit turned on, or you will hear nothing.

I honestly can't answer you. I don't use a dock or have one. I thought about using a Bluetooth speaker for it.

Yes. I do it all the time. Everything works when it's plugged in. The sound of navigation apps comes thru the speakers too. It's basically like charging it, or docking it on a radio dock. It's just charging it and redirecting sound to your car. (phone calls wont come thru the speakers just by having it docked...it will if you plug in chord into the headphone jack on the Iphone, and the other end of that wire into the headphone jack on the radio, then switch the mode on the radio).

There is an I-Pod dock. Why would you need an adapter? To adapt from/to what?I agree with the last two answers

The dock stopped work really quickley my son has it and it only works with an aux cord! I wouldn't recommend it! I have a sony dock now I love and you can attach Bluetooth speakers. It cost about $90!

With default settings on my phone putting it into the car dock does not open car mode. However I have not messed with any phone settings as far as car mode goes.

It probably depends on the vehicle and also if you're trying to keep a cd changer in play. For my installation, I only needed the iPod 30 pin cable as I wanted the USB port free so that I can use it as a charging port for my iPhone while in the vehicle.

The dock does not come with a car charger. It must be purchased separately.
