ok so i ordered one and it sounds great, only drawback is for the mark levinson to recognize it, i have to turn on the radio on, shutoff the car and restart it to recognize the adapter ... does beat the cassette adapter and the price was great 89.00 dollars... i dunt know why it doesnt sound good in your honda, maybe the honda radios just dunt compare to the levinson??

its he same process as the vais unit search it on the forums for vais install and its the same process.... but like i said before , you have to turn on car turn radio on turn off car and turn back on for the unit to recognize it..... it is kind of a hassle to do it like that but hey it charges the iphone and plays music !! plus only 89 $$

You have to do this during initial setup to get the ML headunit to recognize the unit....or you have to do this EVERY time you start the car to get it to work?

Wow..."kinda" sounds like an understatement!

I have the Vais SLU and, while they're fairly expensive...it works...flawlessly. I've never had even one hiccup since installing it 2 years ago.
