1. Do you have to have the cd changer ? or does it just plug into that jack on the back of the NIT ?
YES, you must have a CD changer. That is the only way to "trick" the Blaupunkt OEM headunit in the Maserati.
2. Can you use a shuffle or nano, or only an ipod ?
You can use a nano. The shuffle is a little different since it uses a standard headphones jack instead of the iPod connector. If you have a shuffle or iPhone, I can make it with a headphones jack. No charging though.
3. Can you control it from the headunit ? Any display on the headunit ?
You can't control anything from the headunit. And nothing from the iPod displays on the headunit. Sorry.
Let me know if you have any other questions. Feel free to e-mail me direct at

It should work the same with the Spyder. You'll need to connect it behind the headunit, and again, you'll need to have an EXTERNAL CD CHANGER installed in your vehicle.
