Yes it should work...The cable you linked up is using a plug on the back of the Factory radio which is like an aux...It is still using the stereos power to drive the speakers...The ipod alone Tapped into speaker wires would only be using the ipod...Also i dont think that harness charges the ipod...Which doesnt seem like a big deal...But in the long run it does suck...Your radio does have the circular ,black, din , 8 pin plug on the back...?? Also they list 1.5 weeks to ship...And you still need the rca to headphone jack cable... http://www.activetuning.com/products/universal/PXP01 is the harness they recommend if you also want to charge ipod...

havent you heard? its not an Ipod. yeah he just dropped that little bomb in his last post. so good luck charging it unless he has a car charger for his MP3 player.

yep - looks like it should work ... now the most time consuming part : taking the dashboard apart ... I do not have a clue where to start

01 altima? automatic transmission i assume.

pop off the trim bezel around the shift knob carefully and there should be 2 screws under there that hold the trim around the radio in. after you get those screws there might be 2 more screws close to the top of the radio's trim bezel. if they exist take them out and the rest is held on with clips from behind. it shouldn't be that hard to pry off but still be careful not to break it.

after that you should see the screws that hold the radio itself in. take those out and that should be it.

no, those cars are pretty simple. just use common sense, if something feels like it wont pop out then you should be looking for screws. if it has never been taken apart before the clips might be a little stiff but that is about it.

thanks for all ur help. I was able to dismantle the whole thing and get the radio out .. so assuming I will be able to purchase that aux-in jack ...do you think I can hook up my notebook to the plug ? I mean headphones out (notebook)<-->aux-in plug. Once I start playing music on my notebook do you think I can pass it thru the car speakers ? thanks !

if it works for your MP3 player then i see no reason that it wouldn't work with a notebook.
