This listing is for a slim silver version without the apple logo or any text on the back as can be seen in the 2nd picture. If you want one with the text and apple logo in different colors or sizes here is the link: https://partspluspods.com.au/product/bluetooth-upgrade-kit-for-apple-ipod-classic-5th-gen/
Bluetooth Upgrade Kit For Apple iPod Classic 5th 6th & 7th Gen. This kit is a rear housing assembly with a built in Bluetooth module and 3000mAh battery. To add it to your iPod simply remove the existing rear housing and attach this one!
To pair your Bluetooth earphones/ headphones/ speaker: Use the lock switch to turn on power to the Bluetooth module, put your earphones in pair mode, click the pair button by pushing in the lock switch.
Please note:
The lock switch has been converted to a power switch for the bluetooth module. By installing this rear housing you will lose lock switch functionality.
Compatibility:
- The slim housing version will only fit if you use an iflash quad.
- You can also install this onto an ipod classic 6 and 7th gen as well, although you also have to remove the metal shield from behind the LCD. (in the original video i had said the range was limited although i had tested it using a low quality pair of bluetooth earbuds. After testing with a better quality pair the range issues went away)
- not compatible with the airpods pro 2s specifically. As they requite more bandwidth than what the standard bluetooth spec will allow, hence why they only really work properly with other apple products. I have had reports from buyers saying they connect but the audio sounds choppy. Other airpods models have been reported to work.
The bluetooth board used is the KCX_BT_EMITTER v1.7. uses Bluetooth 4.1 Technology
Please take care whilst installing this rear housing. It is more difficult to install than a regular rear housing as there are wires that you have to keep out of the way. If you are not comfortable doing it on your own please contact me and I can do it for you.
