The Monster Cable solution sounds a lot like the USA-SPEC solution( PA10-HON with Volvo Cable...all totalled about $130), which also uses the head unit via the CD-Changer. Didn't know if you knew this but the USA-SPEC unit also has aux. input, but you do loose the original CD-Changer unless you can somehow ingeniously splice in a switch along with other connector. I know that someone over at Swedespeed was successful in doing just this with newer cars but I haven't read anything for our cars. I was thinking that possibly that information, although for different head units, would be helpful in your application. That's why I posted.
Good luck with your endevours and let us know of your developments.
Regards,
MIJ
