Android in the car

[bighitter]

For those of you that have Android phones and have it play music through your stereo in the car, how did you go about setting it up? I currently have an iPhone and my head unit has an iPod cable which works great. I'm guessing most head units do not have an Android interface yet. I'd love to hook up my new Android phone to the car and listen to my music, but I'm not sure how you guys are doing that these days.

My concern is sound quality and being able to easily navigate through my gigs of music while driving. Like I said, it was easy with the iPhone because of the iPod interface.

Looking forward to your input.

friend of mine just uses the usb cable and it sounds fine

I'm guessing the USB cable is plugged directly into the head unit somewhere? I've seen some head units with USB on the front and the back.

Just hook it up thru the headphone jack?

Plugging it in to the headphone jack isn't my idea of "integration".
