iPod on a stock C280 head unit

I just added an old cd changer to my 94 C280 and that got me jazzed. There's nothing like listening to clean, clear music that YOU want to listen to. The stock head unit and speakers sound good enough for my needs - I'm too old to need 120db anymore.

Because I prefer the stock MB and/or AMG look and I enjoy tinkering, the next thing I would like to do is tap into the stock head unit's WB path with a miniphone stereo jack so I can play my iPod. What is WB for anyway - European radio?

I've done similar things with head units in the past, and I know finding the right circuit points can be like finding a needle in a haystack.

Does anybody have any clues?

WB is short for weather band. The simplest way is to interrupt the cd changers audio lines with a relay to run your audio ito the radio.
