go with what honda/acura recommends "USAspec PA15 HON2" http://www.handa-accessories.com/accelect03.html i have it install and it works great...bought it for $129.00 shipped through ebay, depending what you are doing or going for, as for me, i purchased the acura tsx audio attachment kit in order to install my alpine headunit..(the headunit comes with usb thumb drive reader). i could also plug in my ipod or iphone and control my folder and music with my steering wheel. Also i have full nav voice and voice activation functionality.

heres a picture of my setup:

I tried the grom kit but didn't like it. As soon as I plugged it in you could hear engine noise coming threw the speakers. I had also installed the bluetooth adapter and every time someone would could you would have to turn the volume up on the phone, and if you are using your am/fm mode instead your bluetooth wouldn't work.

thanks for the feedback. i'm going to go with the one from ebay. i'll post up after the install and comment on the quality, although i'm sure it'll be great.
