becker ipod cord

Unless you're totally in love with the OEM look of the Becker, why not just get a new head unit. They're cheap nowadays, integrate with the factory amp and have streaming audio capability. Not to mention the extremely better sound output...

any suggestions for a head unit.?

It really depends on what your stock system is now and what you want to get out of the new head unit. If you are only looking for a basic 4 channel head unit with streaming audio and bluetooth phone, there are units out there for $100 even. Check out Crutchfield and see what they have.

For reference, I just put in a Kenwood KDC-X597 for $145 including shipping, wiring harnesses, etc.

Rosenfe- you might want to research a bit. I believe the 03s use the fiberoptic MOST system, meaning changing out the head unit for an aftermarket one is comparitively involved. I seem to be in the minority who are very happy to keep the Becker unit (with tweaking for bluetooth) even though I have the easier-to-swap 01 system. Best of luck either way.

I have ordered this bottom one (I have the iPhone 5, which means I need to connect via a jack, the top product doesn't fit the iPhone, just the iPhone 4 / iPods..)
