How to play my IPOD in my 2005 MB C240 4 Matic?? No Aux output on radio, can'tplugin!

We want to be able to play our IPOD in our 2005 MB C240 4Matic. There is no input or output auxilary plug to plug in our IPOD!!! How can I get my IPOD to work without replacing the MB OEM radio? There must be a way, good percentage of the population own MP3 PLayers/IPOD'S etc so I'm hoping someone out there has the secret!! Thanks

The price on ipod integration dropped by about 50% it can be found under $200 and would be the best route to have ipod in the vehicle. You can inquire at your dealer for this part.

you are correct. MB Charges 2 hours labor to "reprogram" the cdc portion of your radio, than some hoe some way, abracadabra $500 later your ipod will play........ is it worth replacing the radio with the aux hole in front...?
