There are at least a couple of aux. cables that you can purchase to connect your ipod, directly. Most ipod displays will come over your radio/nav display as well. However, you must have the radio loosened/removed to get to the back to plug in the cable. I just bought one from Grom Audio (gromaudio.com, I think) for $87.99 including shipping. I'm about to install it in the next few days but am going to see if there is any radio removal expertise on this site before I do. Good luck
