ing pages you will find our vehicle application guide.  This guide will inform you of the 

proper dip-switch configuration and vehicle specific harness for your particular vehicle.  
Depending on the type of audio2car kit you purchased, it might include a bundle of 

different vehicle harnesses or none at all. If the kit contains many harnesses, only one 

will be needed for your specific vehicle. If the kit came without any vehicle harness, 

your authorized Peripheral® dealer will have the harness for you to purchase separately.

1.4 IMPORTANT Compatibility Notes!

1.4.1  ALL VEHICLES-

 

If your vehicle is equipped with a factory CD changer, you must disconnect it in order to 

be able to install the interface. You will lose the use of the factory CD changer to gain 

use of your Mobile Device.

1.4.2  ACURA-

 

Not compatible with vehicles equipped with a factory Navigation system.

1.4.3  CHEVROLET-

The Audio2car interface is currently not compatible with any factory external audio 

source such as: XM tuner, Any CD player or Cd changer, or Cassette player. These 

devices must be disconnected during the installation and will longer function. You will 

lose the use of these devices to gain use of your mobile device.

1995-1999 Radios with built in CD player  (Except Corvette) are NOT compatible with 

the Audio2car interface because they do not have CD changer control functions.

1.4.4  CHRYSLER-

To determine if your vehicles radio has CD changer control functions, and will work with 

the iPod2car interface, check preset button #”1” for the “Disc ^” symbol. 

1999 Chrysler vehicles have one of two different style radios.  These two radios use 

different harnesses.  The shape of the radio face will determine which harness you will 

use.  If your radio face is SQUARE, you will use the harness part#  PXHCH1.  If your 

radio face is OVAL (rounded corners), you will use the harness part# PXHCH2.
