First,

Yes, I have searched (mp3 mfsw) and really didn't find anything.

I know on the "other" board ( http://www.mini2.com/forum/showthrea...ge=1&pp=15 ) there is a listing of aftermarket head units that are compatible with the MFSW, but they all seem to be european models.

Is there a HU with MP3 that I can control with my MFSW? Seems like all the manufacturers make one (or more), but not for the US.

I know Blitzsafe is an option, but was hoping there is one that just plugs in.

If there is a long list, maybe we should make it a sticky?

-Rob

I'd ask mikeythemini for specific help (author of the thread you linked to above). Worst case, you could use a SWI-X IR adapter for any HU with remote control. That's what I did, and I'm very happy with it.

I spent a lot of time looking for this very solution. For some reason American decks don't have the hard wire connection for their units, but the exact model for the europe market has them.

then again, you might pick up things you didn't know were out there. When I lived in the UK, my little waklman picked up police, taxi's, and the pizza delivery guy's radio. Was kinda neat....

maybe done in reverse, a uk radio in the US, you'll pick up the secret stations the government uses to control our minds or contact the aliens that live amongst us.
