Tell me something what the hell is wrong with having a remote control for a car stero, very one thats got in my car has paid me out for having one. like sure ur less than half a metre from the console who cares!!

Well it's fairly pointless for the driver, however the back seat passengers seem to love it in my car, hence why it lives in the glovebox, unmentioned.

ditto.

4 hour trip up the coast with a full car + friends finding remote? Hell.

nar see heres the thingg i reckon ive used the remote more cause u know how theres a cap between the hand brake and the thingy u can stick stuff in like the glove box but next to u that thing i put the remote holder there cause u can just click it off and it never falls off.

i had the remote in my hand so i dont have to lean forward while driving, but the best use was, when using your car for music at a party, just aim and point, whithout jumping in and out of the car, but i lost my remote (spewin)

it was handy with my previous jvc unit as it was easier to skip songs with a small remote with 4 buttons than leaning forward mucking around with the unit

my eclipse unit is very easy though :D - the turn wheel **** me off @ first cause it was so sensitive but use 2 it now

meh, not difficult for me to reach the stereo (wat is it, 10cm away from the shift knob?)

and as before, rather not have passengers messing around with it :doubt:

Its good when you are out of the car with the stereo gonig for a group of people, you can change songs, volume etc from outside the car

yeh i dont think anyone that hasnt got a remote thinks of it from that side

bah! i got a remote for my deck and it lives in my centre console
been sitting in there most of its life
only use it when im tuning amps that are inside the boot

mines got a remote that rivals most dvd 5.1 dolby digital surround sound theatre etc etc... ones... and then all the buttons have 3 different functions depending on what mode its it!!! i just leave it in the centre consol thingy, its a pain

i love my remote, i use it more than leaning over to change music. its good for back seat but only when im in it. and the reason i get in it is cause i like to go places and just chill in the car.. i only spent 2 hours laying down on my backseat listening to music. i also have a pillow i can use :D

my remotes attached to a holder sitting just where ur hand sits when ur left arm leans on the armrest. Hand is on it everywhere i go basically.

*thread moved to car audio*

yeah mines constantly in my lap, when im just cruising i'd rather not reach over to my deck and hover my arm there, to skip through to tracks in a row when i can just sit and change by moving my index finger :) and as stated, level setting amps, very handy, and when sitting outside of car picnicing or whatnot its handy too.

I only use mine when I'm navigating a DVD menu... Other than that it never really comes in handy because I usually forget I actually have one.
