Note: Apple iPod/iPhone software updates may change functionality results. If you download a newer software version, you may need to reset the factory radio and your iPod/iPhone to regain functionality. If this doesn't work, you may need to revert to the older software version or wait until an newer software update is available.

iOS 4.0 Note: This product is not compatible with iPhone or iPod touch running iOS 4.0 or above.

Aux In: If you do not own an iPod, the PXAMG interface module features a stereo RCA input and a stereo 3.5mm input for connecting an external audio source to your vehicle's factory radio.

Sirius Satellite Radio: The iSimple SatWire (541ISSR11, sold separately) acts as a bridge between the iSimple GateWay in your vehicle and the Sirius SCC1 satellite radio tuner (607SCC1, sold separately). Once installed, you'll enjoy more than 180 channels of 100% commercial-free music, comedy talk, sports, news, and more (Sirius Satellite Radio subscription required). You also get full command of the Sirius SCC1 satellite radio tuner through your vehicle's factory radio controls. In addition, station, artist, and song data will appear on your factory radio's screen.

HD Radio: The PXAMG brings HD Radio broadcasting to your vehicle's factory headunit with the help of the Peripheral Electronics HD Radio Tuner (HDRT, sold separately). By adding the HDRT HD Radio Tuner you will receive digital radio stations that can not be received with a standard tuner. Experience HD Radio and hear FM in CD quality, and AM at FM quality.

USB Connection: Its mini-USB type-B connection allows the PXAMG to be continually updated with downloadable firmware to work with the latest applications.
