Okay I can get either one of these for the same price roughly. The PhatBox is slightly more expensive (but still getting quite a deal on it), but that is not of concern. Of concern is which MP3 solution is the easiest to navigate using the steering wheel controls or the actual HU.

Any opinions on either or?

Also anyone know where I can buy an OEM HU with the 6 disc that will accept Sirius? I have an early build 04 and I dont have a SAT button and would like to have Sirius for my road trips. Especially with the new stations they have added.

Yeah actually I do. As I said I am getting a wicked deal on the PhatBox.

I think I am the only one on this board that has the Phatbox (or willing to admit it anyway). I also got a steal of a deal on it, and I can tell you that having tried both the Ipod way and the Phatbox method that the Phatbox is the way to go. navigation is super easy and somewhat intuitive and fully uses the steering wheel controls. Plus you also have the option of the system "talking" to you telling the names of the albums, tracks, etc. The fact you have a couple of voices to choose from helps as well. If I had it to do all over again, I would still choose the phatbox. PM me if you want any more details.

Bought my OEM IPOD kit at Khan Motorsports (Toronto) for $150

Phat Box looks pretty cool!

You are not alone.
And why admitting it is bad?
Its pretty cool actually. I had 2 Audiolink MP3 players died in 2 weeks before getting the PhatBox.
