I want a Ipod in the boat but I want a screen to read like my ipod with the ipod in the glove boat what do you think of Icruze product. I looks like its not FM or wireless. It looks like its a direct connect which would be better right? http://www.monstercable.com/iCruze/

yes, hardwired ipods are 100% better sounding than those transmitted through an fm frequency. i'm not sure if icruze is better than all the rest. i'm sure grant will be able to help you.

I have done a couple of the Icruiz. They seem to work pretty good. Easy install. I havent done one of the optional displays yet though.

Squid the Icruze is not what you want. Give me a call and I'll give you the dirt.

You should look into the Harmon Kardon Drive + Play. it looks like it might be what you are looking for

the HK drive+play has an audio output for direct connection to use instead of FM modulator. 3 ways to hook it up. 1.FM modulator (good)2.FM direct(wires inline on the antenna lead)(better) 3. 3.5mm audio output(get a 3.5mm to RCA and plug it into the aux input on head unit)(best)
