yah, you can use your HU w/ Ur carPC. the carPC's sound card will run to your HU's AUX inputs. Yes, you'll have to press AUX whenever you want to use it. I've never heard of a HU in a glove box ? I would bet that there's a way you could manipulate Ur dash so that they could both fit. Or you could do a remote install. (install the faceplate somewhere else). Just a thought

welcome aboard

yah, these questions could all be answered by searching. READ READ READ

1) if you mean listen to radio with head unit and use comp for... wordpad for instance then the answer is yes. if for some strange screwed up reason you want to listen to both at the same time (comp music, and HU cd player) then no, and your crazy.

2) yes, everytime you want sound to play from your comp on your car speakers your HU must be on AUX

There was a post somewhere where the faceplate was remote, I will dig for it.
Remote faceplate! turned out really nice, check it out
I think this is it.
