Did you buy the AUX cable at the dealer? They keep raising the price for those, when I first got myn I had to pay some were around 70-80 for it, when I checked the form I saw people got it for 30-40 from the the dealer a few years back. I was at the dealer the other day and asked how much it was and they said $92. I just sold my AUX cable 2 weeks ago though because I got a new head unit. Those are all good first mods. AUX, HID, Calipers, and blacking out parts of my car were all my first mods, enjoy, it gets addicting.

i ran the cable under the carpet to the armrest, but now im trying to figure how to get in in the armrest now.
It's actually pretty easy. you can just remove the door sill and the wire should be under there and it should be plug and play from there.
You don't need to remove the panel unless you're running the wire to the glove.
The door sill just pops easily, but the panel might be a little harder if you plan on taking it off.

Taking apart the interiors really simple, takes under 10 mins to take the hole thing apart, shouldn't be to hard to do an ipod integration, but most likely pricey

Nice.
Have you thought about putting some new rims? If not, you can go with OEM and get the 07 rims. It makes it a lot more sporty. I had the 06 rims which are similar to yours stock. I bought a set of 07 stock rims and they makes the car totally different.
