Best way to find album in music box when moving?

Okay I did a few searches and couldn't find an answer. I know when you are moving the saftey police block out searching for albums in the music box. I also know you can switch albums by holding down the button on the steering wheel. Is there anyway to find a particular album you want when your driving? Sucks that they block this out!

Go to the menu and switch to search by Albums...Use the right *** to scroll through them...I finally found out how to search by albums by artist meaning:

Turn the wheel for U2's Joshua Tree then again for Achtung Baby then again for How to Dismantle...etc...It took me a few weeks to figure that out

Go to (While Stopped) Search Albums...Hit Sort...Hit by Artist...That puts everything in alphabetical order by Artist by Album

But there is now way when moving to search albums? It blocks that option out and only shows play by album, artist, etc..., so you just have to scroll through them with the steering wheel button? Kind of cumbersome if you have 200 albums loaded and are looking for a particular one?

If in alphabetical order I don't think it takes long to find it at all...I have 50 and it takes seconds...Because when I scroll it scrolls the artists...So if I am looking for a particular album I just go to that artist and then to the album...

Whatever search you use last, it reverts back to when you hit disc/aux.

No, scroll albums using the right tuning ****. Much faster than steering wheel.

+1 for the right tuning ****. That's all I use and is certainly the quickest.
