5pin to an MP3 player????

[Jethroish]

Just put some JM's in mine and wife helmets. My wife's bike does not have a radio.
Anyone know of a way (adapter cord) to connect the 5-pin to an MP3 player?

I'll see if I can make something up for you if nobody finds one. Its not to hard.

That would be sweet.
When 2 up on my bike, it's not a problem.
I guess it is not much more than getting the RCA jack wired to the correct 2 wires of the 5-pin.

Actually you want a female 1/8 in stereo jack to a 5 pin female don't you? Since the helmets headset is male and most mp3 players use a 1/8 jack ?

It would be male stereo jack, like on the earbud headphones, to 5pin so that the music plays in the JM speakers.

I have some female 5 pin connectors and a male stereo. I'm in CA this week so when I get back to San Antonio I'll fix up something. You just need like 3 ft long ?

Thanks for the link Freebird. That is actually the reverse of what I am looking for.

I bought a cord for my wife's bike from Sierra Electronics. Plugs into the I Pod and then into the helmet cord. Their phone is 800 338 6938

I am going to be out of the state for the next week on business but when I return I can post the pin outs for both of the plugs if you want to make your own. It isn't very hard and only costs a few bucks for the parts. Just let me know if you want them.
