You're OK
The iPhone works with the blue tooth adaptor in my CLS 63 .
I just keep the phone in my shirt pocket .. It paired with my iPhone directory no problem ..
I got an iPod adaptor from Apple and it plugs into the auxiliary port in my glove box .. Haven't tried it yet!
Talk to your Service Advisors at Mercedes to hear what they have to say,

Clarification. My car came with the Ipod kit already installed and the Iphone doesn't work with it. It also seems that the Ipod kit took over the Aux input in the glove as it doesn't work either.
Am I screwed?

So are you trying to use the plug for your Ipod in the car, with your Iphone?
Yes the AUX is used by the ipod kit, if you want to have better sound, and have the jack work, you have to do this.

I know, but how??? If the IPhone isn't capatable with the Ipod kit already installed, do I just have to rip it out in order to use the Aux input like I did on my old CLS500?
Which also means I can't use the command center to control.
I was thinking just to suck it up and to buy Ipod just for the car.
No wonder Apple's stock went through the roof today....

Glad I bought Apple stock at $60.

I don't think there were significant changes between 07 and 08?
I don't think it should matter but I also did the "Kevin iPod sound volume improvement mod." Now I have the best of all worlds, iPhone, bluetooth wireless, full phonebook access, iPod functionality, built in car adaptor to charge iPhone/iPod and the louder enhanced volume!
