I just ordered a Dension Gateway 500 from http://www.dension4u.de/shop/index.php which will allow me to control an iPod w/ Comand and steering wheel controls as well as A/B the iPod with the original CD changer. The installation definitely doesn't look easy, but I'll know more when the unit arrives.

I haven't received it yet, but from the picture of the fiberoptic cable I would say yes. That should be fun....

Hello, I have a 2003 Cl55. Could you let me know how the install goes?
