I can't find them here in Canada and in the Us and they are out of stock at Sik.com. :-x

I have the Belkin charger which I like very much but I was going to buy a Sik Imp for my other vehicle. Yeah, the web site says no more until March! :-x

You might want to try the Belkin- I haven't had any problems with it and the sound is great IMHO. Take a look at the reviews on ipodlounge.com

did you email the guys at sik and ask when they would be in?

they were very nice when i emailed, responding in about 24 hours (i think it is a *very* small operation). they got me mine in 3days.

What is a Sik Imp?

Yeah, I've been hoping to get one too. I think I'll go for their alternate deal. It should be just as good and maybe better if you want to leave wires in place and remove the charger part.

Hi everybody,

Biocube, no I had not email to Sik to know when they will have them in stock, but on the site they say probably in mid-march.

PVR, yes, I looked for the Belkin one and it was not easy to find here in montreal, but I finally found some in 2 places for about 55.00 $ cdn. I can order them from the USA for 29.00 US but it cost between 19,00 to 30.00 US for shipping. :x (However, my feeling after the reading across this site was that the Sik Imp was a better value)

Tessa Y, the Sik Imp is a device to connect your Ipod to your Radio system in the Element and be able to charge it in the same time.

Thanks to all of you.

I bought my Belkin iPod connector with both the charger and 3.5mm audio built in for $8.00 including shipping off eBay! Yes you read that right... $8.00 with shipping. :) $1.25 for the Belkin and $6.75 for shipping. Didn't have any issues with that shipping price.

They don't ship to Canada, but if you want one let me know and I will get one for you off eBay and ship it to Canada for you. Just pay for the actual costs, I don't want anything other than to help a fellow E owner. :)

Buy Essex on eBay (http://search.ebay.com/_W0QQsassZbuyessex)

I also bought the short audio cable on eBay for $7.00 shipped. I have a Radio Shack cable, but am going to return it, like this cable more. It is black, shorter and the ends are 90* instead of straight. More compact.

Funny thing, just noticed the seller of the cable is an E owner! lol That's one of the pics from the auction.

Let me know.

Sorry you missed the post before going out and buying it. Let me know. Anything reasonable isn't a problem reshipping to someone.
