I currently use a USA SPEC auxilliary input.* It works well in that it does what it is advertised to do, but I still need to use the Kenwood Music Keg FM Modulator interface for track selection.* (I use the direct connection, though, no FM modulation, the interface is just used to operate the Keg.)* I have been looking at some of the PIE and Soundgate items, but the PIE one just makes radio presets to function as track up, track down, etc. so steering wheel controls won't really work.* I'm waiting to hear back from Soundgate regarding their item.* While I'm looking into it for my Keg, I will report back, because I would imagine that the headunit-side functionality is very similar across all of their products, so if the Keg one does what I want, their iPod interface should, too.
