2007 AUX in--is there a consensus?

Hi all,

I'll be getting my 07 base model (yeah, but hey, it's free--it's a company car) in a few weeks. One thing I absolutely must have is an AUX in connection to the stereo for my SkyFi radio. I prefer to keep the SkyFi, so I have the flexibility of moving it among vehicles.

I've searched and read this forum for the past week until my eyes droop with sleep, and have gotten some incredible information. I must have done something good in a past life to be treated so well by a group of obviously smart people...

Anyway, is there a consensus about which AUX in solution is overall the best value? I don't mean cheapest, I mean one that is done right and has all the correct features and is well built and is priced correctly (or better) for what it is.

I'm thinking I need just audio, although the Coastal E Tech's Lockpick with video is intriguing. I'm also thinking I don't want an iPod dock per se, mostly because Apple can change the dock at any moment.

Two AUX jacks would be cool, and as I said the video thing seems nice and geeky to me on the surface. But I'm looking for a consensus by the experienced folks here on what works and what doesn't, and what's useful and what's a waste of money, and what you couldn't live without anymore.

Thanks, and if you need any Honda Odyssey advice, just head on over to odyclub.com.

That's correct. Base model doesn't have AUX in, dammit.

So is there a consenus with regard to the quality of manufacturers and products?

I printed out his instructions. Awesome. Even more awesome was finally getting some good use out of my new Xerox Phaser 6180 printer...

I'll take a look at the AUX2CAR. Thanks for the recommendation.
