Thinking of a 2003 320 SD.

Thanks Three...
I have been looking around for a few years casually, came across this by chance. I never did test drive the 5.7's but these 6.2's look like they are just right.
 
Bought a 320 in pristine cond with 450 hours. 6.2 with V-Drives, Camper top, bow thruster....
Anyone know if the stock radio is ready to pug in an IPod somewhere?
I couldn't find it and not near the boat for a week now.
Also...do they make specific sheets to fit the V-Berth?

You can get a Bluetooth module that will plug into the auxiliary input of your stock Clarion. The inputs are in the back and are of the RCA variety. Go to a car stereo store ..they’ll hook you up.

There are companies that make sheets fitted specifically for your boat, but you pay a serious premium. For us it wasn’t worth it. I believe queen sheets will work for the 320. I have king in mine but the 340 is a bigger v berth. They work great.

So that makes me wonder if I can then get a plug to put in the back...then run the lead out to plug the ipod in direct. I had a couple of those Bluetooth things in the past and you do lose a little signal in the transmission. In my prior boat there was a special tool to remove the radio, do you know if this has the same setup?

Yes, depending on what head unit is in the boat. Older (early 2000s) 320’s had XMD1’s from Clarion that did NOT have an AUX port on them. So there was nowhere to connect an external BT module or any direct leads. The later years had head units like the XMD3 that did have AUX inputs. But don’t bother with the wired connection. The Fusion BT adapter is fantastic. And not too expensive. Search CSR for “BT-100” or “BT100” and you should find a lot of info.

Thanks...mine is a 2004 so hopefully it will be ready to hook in by wire. My prior 2006 had a prewired IPod jack hidden in the closet next to the unit, which I didn't find till I owned it for a year or two. If I can't by wire I'll look for the Fusion....Thanks!

I just bought an '06 320 DA with the stock (not upgraded) Clarion stereo still in it. On the side of the cabinet behind the salon couch, there is an aux in. It looks almost like a cigarette lighter/power input but lift the black cover and it is for aux in cord. Of course, mine doesn't work but trying to figure that out now... good luck!
 
I have Bluetooth on my XMD-1. There is always a way. In my case the Bluetooth trasmits an FM signal and I just tune to that frequency to hear my iPhone connected via Bluetooth.

I think they added that jack in 2006, My prior was a 2006-290 and same thing...in the cabinet. Almost like an after thought. It took me almost a year of owning it to discover it.
