could you not just use one of those units that let you use a stock hu with amps? so it gives you pre-outs?

lol would be good really... i mean u got everything you need essentially, only thing it lacks is cd drive support.. cuz it has keyboards etc for it. but you never know with jailbreak software theres always the possibility...
