2010 Honda Insight EX: Hey, Shorty

Honda cars usually come with pretty spiffy audio features. Our Insight is no different. My only complaint is that the connector in the center storage compartment is awkward to reach. It's not that it's in a bad place. But the cable itself is so short, it makes it difficult to reach when you want to plug in your device.

It's nice that it doesn't take up a lot of space in the smallish storage compartment. And I like that there is a pocket for my iPod. But another six inches of cord would really makes things easier and not be in the way.

Buy a longer iPod/iPhone cable online for $1.99. Problem solved.

The radio controls can only be used for the iPod function. I use my iPhone to stream radio using the Slacker or Pandora app, and I have to navigate using the touch screen.
