    Ahaha, gotcha. I love the look of the oem unit, it's a good looking oem deck, and my stereo cables come out of the FAUX button on the center console, it couldn't be more convenient really.

    OEM head unit here, with no plans to change it.

    I got a Jabra Cruiser 2 bluetooth speakerphone w/ built-in FM transmitter. It links to my phone using bluetooth (A2DP) and plays my music over the stereo (FM). The sound quality is good enough sound for me, and it gives me access to all the online radio content that I can get via my phone (tune-in, slacker, XM, rdio, etc). If a call comes in, it pauses the music while I take the call. It also gives you the option to have calls transmitted over FM, which is fine for most of my calls. It's a nice unit, IMO. I put the phone on a windshield mount and use it as a display for the audio stuff as well as for navigation (4" display).

    OEM for life!

    Never been a big audio guy although I admit that the stock stereo just plain sucks. The main reason I don't go aftermarket is because they look like crap with the EP3 dash (and most modern cars with dash integrated stereos). An aftermarket radio in a modern car just looks too mid-late 90's for me.

    Have never seen an aftermarket headunit that flows with the dash except maybe a navigation unit (but A, they are expensive and B, they are a thief magnet).

    The OEM radio is nice because the faceplate contours the dash, it's silver and VERY simple. Don't need a ton of features...just the radio and my iPod hookup (using iPod2Car).

    Thinking about upgrading the speakers, buying a line out adapter and/or possibly a small amplifier (maybe find an RSX-S amp with subwoofer) to put under the seat and in the spare tire well. Want to keep things looking as OEM as possible.
