ezechar is an unknown quantity at this point
I also bought the USA Spec iPod adapter and it seems like a good way to control your tunes and charge the ipod at the same time, but it's definitely a bear getting it in if you don't take off the head unit. I'd say impossible myself - I couldn't do it at all, and I have rather small and nimble hands. They're all cut up from 15+ minutes of scraping and trying to plug it in.

I gave up on that and decided to pull the head unit and boy was that easy. A few screws, unhook the heater controls, wiggle out the head unit and you're done. I'd do it that way again in a heartbeat. Actually I might have just bought an aux in instead and soldered the thing on, but I haven't done much soldering and I wanted a plug and play solution.

I have the iPod plug coming out of the passenger side cup holder, where there is an indentation for a handle, it's a perfect fit and looks pretty good. Happy to have iPod integration back.
