Single CD MP3 works great - I may skip the Ipod install.
I burned 100 tracks onto a CDR. Track information along with time code displays on the nav unit and in the dash. Pretty awesome.
I think I'll save my money and spend it on illuminated sills instead of Ipod integration!

What player are you using for this CD, CDC or DVD Nav? Does this work on the 06 55?

i had the icelink in my bmw for years before i got the mbz. i paid extra over other options because i wanted the 'steering wheel controls' and i wanted the words to pop up on the dash.... but what i realized is when theres something i want to hear, you'll never get there (or it takes forever) without using the trackwheel.... so ultimately, what steering wheel controls are you going to use? they will work, but since you will find yourself controlling everything thru the ipod, its useless... at least thats my $.02.

Thanks guys for motivating me to do this. Just put my fav playlist (119 songs) on a CD and popped it in. It works great and adds to the experience quite a bit. I don't like that you can't see the artist's name, just the song. All my driving songs are on there. My top three driving songs for this car so far:
1) Fired Up (busta rhymes)
2) Stunt 101 (50)
3) Going the distance (Cake)
The sound quality is very good. i wonder how it compares to the iPod kit.

If you put 100 songs on one CD, and you want to hear track #73 do you have to push the down or up button on Command 73 times to get to the track, or is there a quick menu of sorts?

You can also have multiple folders (different playlists) and then the right arrow will take you through the folders, very much like your phone book.
