Ok, first off, I went throught the same thing in my truck. I wanted to keep the factory steering controls also. I started by buying aftermarket speakers. The sound got even worse because the stock headunit doesnt put out enough power to effectively drive aftermarket speakers. Trust me, put in an aftermarket headunit. I put in the alpine cda-9885 w/fullspeed ipod, and love it. I purchase the pac-swi device so that I could still use the steering wheel controls and it works good. Alot of people will bash the pac-swi saying that it is too slow and often doesnt work. Mine works just as it should.
Even though you say you wont, you will probably get the itch to keep upgrading, so starting out with a good headunit is only going to help. That way you can expand to highs/mids amps, subs, etc...
Let me know if you need anything else,
