I see a lot of questions on the IPOD interface.. I know little about the Pioneer hook ups. The Alpine deck that is out now has IPOD, Sirrius, CD,, and tuner has a little cable that you just plug and play.I ran the wire out of the dash into the glove box and the Ipod stays in there. When I need it, just unplug it and go down load more tunes. I also found the new alpine back door speakers to be a nice treat. The component speaker really pumps out clear highs and mids. Alpine 6 X 9 in the front doors and two alpine 10;s under the back seat all are series 12 alpines married to that deck and the mono block amp and the 450watt on the other speakers seems to be a good combination. The amps are mounted under each seat, the 10s are in a custom box made for the back of the 1998 year trucks. The 6 x 9 seem to need a little more air space but get the job done. If I had it to do over? I would put those 6.5 componets in the front and back they do sound sweet.

 

Don't know bout IPOD, I bought a Sirius reciever for my 94 stealth...Took lotsa patience, but wired the antenna from trunk to behind dash, and only 2 inches of antenna wire are visible. I LOVE SIRIUS!
