I would suggest an Alpine head unit that is Ipod compatible. Then all you will need is one wire that goes from the back of the unit to connect to the Ipod. When I ordered mine I got the Ipod connector cable and install stuff for free!

With the Alpine unit the interface on the head unit works just like the Ipod and it charges the ipod while its attached to the cable. I have had this set-up in a BMW and now my Jeep and love it. i can stick the ipod in the glovebox and its out of site from prying eyes in the parking lot.

:D

I agree, get yourself an aftermarket unit c/w iPod compatibility.
Shop around for features. I too bought a Kenwood that has iPod compatibility plus an Aux input jack and can play MP3 from a USB stick or CDROM. And the best feature is a remote control :)

My Kenwood is capable of Bluetooth & satellite radio however those features weren't included and cost extra :mad:

To get an aftermarket radio to fit in the Libby dash you'll need some stuff from Crutchfield. i.e.: console adapter, wiring harness adapter and antenna adapter. Most cost from $10 to $20. You'll appreciate the upgrade, I know I have.

Exactly where I bought my stuff from.
