Looking for place to get iPod installed

I've got a question for the forum. I have an 05 G and I'm looking to get a iPod connection installed...wondering who you guys would suggest. I got one quote from sonicboom/custom (http://www.sonicboomcustomsounds.com/) for a little more than $200 and this would be the set up where I can control everything from the steering wheel (forgot which that one is )

I just don't know if anyone has heard of them (good or bad) and would recommend them. When I called Car Toys they first wanted to try to sell me on a FM Modulator (I was like...uhh...no); then he came back with just an audio Ipod connection but didn't think they could do the steering wheel connection, etc...so I'm not sure about them. Anyway; any help on this would be great. Thanks

If you want somebody to do it, then what waijai posted is a good place to go.

Honestly, if you look at the links, some of the ipod integrations are really easy to do. Just plug n play. I did mine in 30mins.

There is a HUGE thread on here somewhere related to the iPod install with a full write up with pictures on how to do it yourself and where/what to buy. It's a very easy install. I would say do it yourself!

Here is what I've been using for the past 2 years...

USA Spec Pa11-NIS iPod Car Stereo Interface and I absolutely love it.

You can read all the specs on the ebay link I posted..

Ipod sits in my center console, charges while car is on and for 1 hour after car is turned off. Integrates directly to the OEM radio and use radio buttons to ffwd, rwnd, skip fwd, skip back, or access different playlists.

There are several DIY pages how to pull out your OEM radio so you can plug this in yourself and then mount the unit inside the console area.
