What are the options for iPhone car audio?
What's the best car audio head unit to use with the iPhone? I've seen lots of decks by Alpine, Kenwood, and Pioneer that claim full compatibility with iPods for music, but I can't tell which of those work the same for the iPhone. I've heard that none of the systems that let you control your iPod (for music) with a nice interface right from the head unit work with for the iPhone. Is that true?
I'd really like to upgrade my car stereo, but am not sure what to rock.

Inappropriate?I just had the KDC-X592 with the KCA-BT200 bluetooth adapter installed, and it works with my iPhone. The controls to navigate through your music takes a bit of practice (I'm now more used to the iPhone way versus the iPod way), but otherwise it's a great combo, allowing me to play my music through my car speakers, make and receive calls as well and listen to the other person through my car speakers.
I’m happy

Inappropriate?BTW, both are Kenwood units.

Inappropriate?Belkin makes a charger that plugs into lighter. You can use a 1/8 to 1/8 audio cord to plug into auxiliary jack on your car stereo OR use the FM transmitter on the charger. The auxiliary jack sounds better.
Another way is to use the white dock that came with your phone and the 1/8 to 1/8 inch audio cord to auxiliary jack. It will not work with head phone jack on the phone, but it will work with dock jack.
