There's a new in-the-box ACM on ebay. Good luck to those who want one.

I used to covet this, but after I soldered an AUX-IN to the head unit I no longer do. Of course plugging a USB stick in would be nicer because then you could use the steering wheel controls to change songs, but I can live without that for now.
In case someone wasn't aware of the possibility;

Wow! Thats a pretty cool hack! Not for the feint hearted though. You gotta be good with a soldering iron to get it done right.
I bought a second hand ACM and have been 100% satisfied ever since.

 

Thanks for sharing the link. What should one expect to spend on this item?

 

If you can find one at a US dealer you'll pay around $425. There have been rumors about Jag making a new batch, but I wouldn't hold your breath waiting.

If you do get this one remember to install the new software because the Jag software essentially locks out your iPod and you are stuck with selecting songs using the radio controls. On the surface this sounds cool but you are restricted to the first five or six playlists. The Dension software allows you to use both. The iPod and the car's radio controls. Therefore allowing you full access to your music.

The other thing you may come across is, if you don't have a six CD changer, is you'll have to have the CDC button activated by a Jag dealer, or your local independent Jag guy. The ACM makes your radio think it's a CD changer.

Good luck. I've been using an ACM for a while now and never listen to the radio any more.
