Default Connecting protable devices to factory audio system

Rather then burning a new CD all the time I would like to connect my protable MP3 player or an Ipod to the factory deck. I noticed Honda sells a "Music Link Kit"
and an "Auxiliry Audio Jack". Which one should I order? Like me,the parts guy at the dealer dosnt know anything about this stuff.
Any help would be appreciated

right, from what EVERYONE has read... the iPod music link doesn't seem to work to well. Havent really seen anyone post that actually owns the music link... none that I recall anyway

If you have iPod the music link would be ideal I suppose.. tuck it away and maintain function of the steering wheel controls...

if you don't have an iPod then just get the aux jack, because you can pretty much plug in any audio device(CD player, tape player, portable/laptop, PDA, cell phones, any mp3 player) to it but will have to use the actual device to control music ... which isn't all bad... doesn't bother me any

I'm getting a couple iPods courtesy of Apple and will be looking into the music link despite everyone's negative feedback on it
