Adding 3.5mm Aux input on stock head unit.
Just wanted to make sure before I pull the trigger. All the old thread links are dead, but is this what people are using? Sure some suggest I go with a new head unit, but there's something about all stock that I like.

I got a similar device from Crutchfield for both my S2000 and Accord and they work great. Mine have RCA inputs so I can use my own cables. For both cars, the devices can just tuck right behind the head units with no special mounting or anything. Then run the cables wherever you like!

This is very tempting. I currently use a FM transmitter, but it doesn't work as well as I'd like.
This looks to be the same product as the one sold through Amazon - http://www.amazon.com/iPHONE-INTEGRA...pr_product_top
I'd be all over it, but the reviews are a bit iffy though ...
Are there any other similar products or one from another manufacturer?
