it does kinda bother me that there's people trying to make money off of information that was created strictly to help people. it bothers me more that people are so lazy that they actually buy the products though.
For me it was about not wanting to modify the stock adaptor. And I don't have an ipod cable, so I'd have had to get that too. So I bought a commercial cable.

I had already wasted enough time acquiring and breaking pin 4 on another adaptor, which didn't end up working at all. Wasn't sure whether it was my TP TV out or the adaptor, so I went with something that would tell me for sure. Didn't want to waste any more time on it.
