Digital MP3 Changer? USB/SD/AUX all-in-one

Has anyone tried these all in one solutions? I love the idea of being able to connect a usb thumb drive or sd card full of music and just leaving it in my glove box while still having the option to connect a aux source such as my smartphone or an tablet/ipad

I have seen one variation on ebay for $95.00 which i am tempted to buy but am disappointed that the stated max is 8gb while others ive seen (non-mini) are 16gb


heres a youtube clip of a similar item

a mini compatible version of this yatour would be great and i think this one can also control an ipod pluged in via usb


anyone know of a similar item in this price range? USB/SD mp3 capabilities is key

Well I I ended up ordering it on ebay (got it for $75 shipped, instead of 95 by using the Make Offer button) so when it gets here (couple of weeks) i will install and post pics.

from this image i looks like i will have to plug into the cd changer port and also 4 additional wires so i guess reaching behind without removing the head unit is out of the question.



only thing im a little iffy about is whether disconnecting the power to the Headunit will force me to enter some code afterwards. mine is a 2006 MC with a July 2006 build date.
