Is this an Ipod solution?

did soem research and found this site: http://www.installer.com/aux/index.html

if you purchase the first itme on the page (the 3.5mm to RCA's) and then purchase the item for mb optical cd changer line in's (scroll down the page and look under mercedes benz), does that allow you to unplug your cd changer and using those items plug in your ipod and control it through the stock radio controls and steering wheel? what if you plug that setup into the aux port in the glove? could this be a solution to using the ipod and controling it? i hope so, im sure one of you will know, thanks!

That's an expensive solution. Just plug in your aux port and listen. I don't think a simple cable solution will allow for steering wheel integration.

That solution will let you have an aux in to your system but I don't think it will control the iPod. For now the best system to control the iPod is Alpine's:
