Installing your Dension Ice Link Plus Car Kit:
Installing your Dension iPod Car Kit is straightforward and is slightly different depending on the car kit you have ordered for you particular vehicle. Have a read through the options below and if you don't really want to install yourself, at the bottom of the page you'll find details of finding a professional installer in your area. Many customers prefer to leave it to someone with the experience to ensure a successful installation first time.
*Full Installation Instructions and User Manual are supplied with all Dension iPod ice>Link Plus versions.
Dension Active Cradle iPod ice>Link Plus Adapter Installation:
Dension Ice Link adapter installation is generally far easier than you would expect. The Ice Link lead simply connects to the *CD Changer Socket found at the rear of your radio by push-fit connection and then to your iPod using your selected connection type. The iPod can mount on your dash using a Dashmount or Brodit vehicle specific bracket or a universal bracket if there isn't a vehicle specific bracket available for your vehicle, utilising the included plate and screws. No wiring is necessary.
*If you are using a changer and your socket is taken you will need the FM ipod car kit. Here you can have the best or both worlds and use both your changer and your iPod.
Mounting the Active Cradle:
If you have selected an option that includes the Active Cradle as opposed to the Dock Cable then you will need a mounting Bracket to position the cradle on your dash providing easy access of your iPod.
We recommend mounting the Active Cradle using the supplied screws with the addition of a Dashmount Mount Bracket or Brodit Bracket ensuring a neat, safe and professional installation.
Dashmount Brackets and Brodit Brackets are Vehicle Specific Damage-Free Mounting Brackets and they are made for your particular car make and model ensuring a perfect fit. They install in minutes without any drilling and protect your dash providing a quick, easy and secure installation giving an integrated look with your car dash and interior. Detailed easy installation instructions are included with each bracket.

If your vehicle is not listed select the Universal bracket option as these are compatible with any vehicle. Universal brackets have an arm that simply slides into position at one side of your radio. Choose between 10mm, 30mm & 45mm arm lengths depending whether your radio is flush with your dash or recessed. A flush radio would use a 10mm Bracket and a radio recessed deep in the dash would use a 45mm bracket.

*If you are using a changer and your socket is taken you will need the FM ipod car kit. Here you can have the best or both worlds and use both your changer and your iPod.
