I really just needed a decent hard wired interface. It's not one of my daily drivers and for the price, it's worth a shot even if I pull it out and shelf it. I did order a iskin tx/rx kit too for my iPod classic. I'll post again once I do the install and see what combo sounds the best. Again, I don't have a lot of $$ invested. I may end up with one of the kits you guys posted above. Have a great day gents.

I received, it is the same audiovox but seems to have more features, I am traveling at the moment but will have it installed at my return. Will let you know the results.

Sound quality is decent for what it is being used for.

Control Unit
DICE i-Audi-R-5v iPod Integration Kit for Audi, Bentley and Lamborghini
Amazon.com: DICE Electronics DUO-103-AVW Dice Audi/VW Silverline DUO- Factory SAT Connection: MP3 Players & Accessories

Bluetooth Adapter (I tested a few, and in my opinion this one works the best)
Amazon.com: CableJive Wireless Bluetooth Music Receiver Adapter for Bose SoundDock, and other iPod and iPhone Audio Docks including iHome, Bose SoundDock, JBL, Logitech, Sony and other 30-Pin Audio Docks for Wireless music. Connect dockBoss air adapter to your speaker dock and control your music from your phone up to 30 ft. away.: MP3 Players & Accessories

This configuration works well.
Only issue I ran into was when using my iPhone 5 for both Bluetooth Hands free which connects to the Stock Bluetooth adapter in the car, and simultaneously connecting to the BossAir adapter, (Yes they do work and connect simultaneously) that when I made or received phone calls, the call was not clear, and seemed broken. I resolved this by dedicating a iPod for music, and my iphone for calls. this configuration works perfectly. I keep the ipod on the ledge next to my battery charger, so when I am charging the car battery, the ipod is charging as well.

Hope this helps. Let me know if you have any questions.

Hi guys, after 3 years, and multiple iPhone upgrades (I am currently on iPhone 6s Plus) this setup has worked flawlessly. I am very happy with it thus far.
