Add Iphone support to stock HU or buy a new cheap HU? What do you guys think? I am at an internship now, so my salary is crap right now.
Peripheral ISimple Ipod GM kit would control song selection through the stock HU/steering wheel controls, but would not charge the Iphone(minor). Around $100
GM9-AUX would simply be an AUX jack, all control would be on Iphone.
If I go with a new HU, I wouldn't splurge for the steering wheel controls, so I would lose those. I probably wouldn't spend more than $150 on it, so keep that in mind.

I think you should go for the isimple interface kit, you might be hard pressed to find a new headunit that works with the iPhone, especially if you're on a budget, I tried to use my iPhone on my new pioneer unit and they won't work together, I tried using it through the USB plug, I have an iPod jack on the back but no cable for it, I don't know if it will work with that or not. The iPhones are a bit different than iPods when it comes to interfacing, but good luck with wichever you choose
