what do you guys think of this mp3 set up then?

I adapted the Harman Kardon car set up for my ride, only cost me £22 new on eBay so, thought I would give it a go.

My ipod sits in the back box and is hard wired into the unit that sits on top of the radio unit, under the batwing.

 

Harman Kardon DP1USDrive + Play puts the familiar iPod menu on a backlit display right on your car's dashboard or windshield, where you can read it at a glance. The system is controlled by an intuitive interface that mimics the navigation on your iPod, and is easy to use.

I don't think you could have done it any better. I have been trying to figure out something to do with my ipod.

 

I have that unit in my truck and it is wicked nice! Thought about putting it on the bike. Now that I have seen yours I will have to think some more. Only problem I have had with it is occasionally it will lock up the iPod and you have to do a hard reboot of the unit. Other then that it works well.

Nice job!

 

I think you did a good job with that install. I have been using the iJet for my ipod. Like you, I have my ipod in the trunk. Ran a cable to the aux port of the radio. The iJet has a small remote that I clip on the windshield bag.
Yours has the advantage of being able to see the song titles and playlist and such. Great job!
