Doug, just as a matter of interest, I'd be intrigued to know how you
actually operate your set-up in terms of practicalities, whilst driving,
i.e. choosing music, changing to another playlist or set of files,
whilst concentrating on avoiding all those other drivers doing their
utmost to collide with you? Seriously though, I have enough trouble
when my daughters plug an ipod in to the aux jack on my current head
unit. I would love to have a 'better' solution, similar to yours but
can't picture how this might work in practice, not the install, but the
actual daily use.

It's not easy, that's for sure. I generally play albums so I don't
have to change that much. I can operate the remote without looking as
far as advancing songs and that kind of thing, but picking albums or
songs is obviously more tricky.
I have a nice harness so there is plenty of reach as far as where to
put the SB, but it usually sits on the passenger seat. I can put in on
my console but sometimes it falls around curves so I generally revert to
the seat.
I usually wait till I'm stopped at a light to add songs or albums to
the playlist. I agree that this is not a great solution and I rarely
use it on short trips. For long trips though it's not problem at all.
Due to the length of my harness I can actually put the unit on the
steering wheel for short periods of time for manipulating through the
files. That way I'm at least seeing the road at the same time I'm
programming.
As for the SQ since I generally don't use it for short trips I often
play XM or local radio. When I do switch to the SB the difference in
sound is just amazing.
