Thanks!
Is the cost going to be in the rumored $299-$349 neighborhood?
....and when is the CL group buy? (There has to be a group buy, right? Because after all, Vaistech is a CL Sponsor and good business practices would be to also support the CL users who make this forum possible, right?)

SL2iC @ $369.99 includes iPod Out with Video Out interface and built in nav unlock. Nav unlock will have to be manually turned on, and will allow nav and bluetooth use while the car is in motion.

Interesting. So nav unlock allows destination entry while in motion? What about viewing DVD's?

I'm getting the ML Plus instead. That can play pretty much anything, not just iPod, has much better audio quality, and its only $130 more.

That's impressive, so much that I was literally about to drive to Best Buy to pick up the iSimple interface. I was actually there earlier today, but didn't have my wallet on me since I was on the way to the gym!

all you need to do is cut and ground the parking wire and you are in business on the video playback
