roadwarrior Posted September 5, 2008 #1 Posted September 5, 2008 I have a rstd so I have no speakers.Can I play my ipod through the GPS and buy a headset for my existing helmet?How does all this work together?
Mariner Fan Posted September 5, 2008 #2 Posted September 5, 2008 I knew a guy who had a bluetooth setup that worked through a headset. He had one of those Nolan helmets that had the headset installed but I don't think that matters. You know the Garmin has a SD card slot for listening to music, right?
roadwarrior Posted September 5, 2008 Author #3 Posted September 5, 2008 Does that mean I can have have my ipod tunes on the disk and plug it into the 550 and they will play ?Then I need a headset unit that runs from hemet into the 550.Is that the way it works?

The Garmin only plays in MP3 format. So, if you can convert the Ipod tunes to MP3 and download them on to your SD card it will work fine. As for the headset......the Gamin has an output plug but it's only the standard 1/8 inch size. The guy who had his set up with bluetooth was riding a Suzuki V-Strom so he didn't have speakers either. I ride the Venture so it's different. I don't know the exact way he had it setup.
Mariner Fan Posted September 5, 2008 #5 Posted September 5, 2008 Mike, Take a look at this site. I'm sure they have talked about this and would be happy to help. Bob http://www.zumoforums.com/
