I've had every iteration of iPod/iPhone to date, and have always searched for the best way to listen to them in my car. I have a 2002 Nissan Maxima and while I've have had various degrees of success over the years, I finally have what I consider (for me, anyway) the perfect setup.
Below is a picture of my current setup:
Apple iPhone 4 w/Bumper case
ProClip iPhone holder
JVC KD-HDR60 head unit
iStubz 22.0 cm sync cable
Music sounds GREAT through this head unit (got it on sale for only $149 at Best Buy) and the stock speakers. I love the front USB port and it charges the phone while simultaneously providing playback. You can control the audio either through the head unit or through the iPhone/iPod itself.
Everyone knows that 98% of the after market cables out there won't fit the Bumper case, but I'm happy to say the iStubz from CableJive fit perfectly and the short size cuts down on clutter. Overall I couldn't be happier with this new set up (although I do need to replace the trim kit because my old one has some screw holes in it). Anyway, just thought my setup might help others do the same in their cars.
