Hi Guys

I have read this thread with interest as I would like to do something like this with a car radio of mine.
I am also wondering if it is possible to install a USB port instead of the 3.5mm jack?

The other option open to me lies with a modern car radio with usb input which is only 80mm deep. The problem is that is a 4 channel stereo radio. The console I have only has space for a single 5.25" speaker at best. Would it be possible to bridge the 2 front speaker connections, and thus have mono output?
