Congratulations to your mom! Please tell her not to buy an Alpine...it doesn't match the console! Tell her to buy a Pioneer....Pioneer has an iPod interface now CD-IB100 plus it has colors that matches well with the silver console. I have an Alpine 9831 with KC-420i interface....I don't like it 'cause it didn't match the console and I'm planning of replacing it pretty soon and install the Alpine in my new Mustang GT.
