Hey Anim - Fantastic blog re. the Stereo upgrade.

With regards to the Ipod control (it's a 2001 986s BTW with a Traffic Pro Head Unit) I'm looking for a solution that allows me to control the tracks from the head unit. If the cable is simply the equivalent of a 3.5mm jack with charging, I might as well go for the Solisto. If I'm stuck with the same 6 folder/99 track per folder issue, I mght as well go with the Solisto.
My biggest issue is trying to keep the system looking as stock as possible, hence why I haven't junked the Head Unit - and the added benefit of integrated European Sat Nav

On to a future project, I'm looking at a pair of JL 6W0's or equivelant (6" mid-bass) in the doors and a Focal 4" 2-way/co-ax in the dash. Will I have mounting depth issues in the doors and/or is there room to build out a collar?
Is the stock 4 channel amp beefy enough for a replacement set of speakers?

Many thanks again
