'02 CL500 Audio questions

I've been going through the threads and absorbing all the information I can. I just purchased an '02 CL500 that is just cherry, with only 56000 miles, Silver/dark gray interior without a mark, bone-bone stock, which is exactly the way I wanted it.

It has the blue-tooth conversion for the phone, so my iPhone is working in the Command system.

I have a few questions:

  • It had plugs for power and antenna for a Sirius radio. Having an extra radio I am ready to install. The only thing missing it the audio-in jack. I checked the glove box and nada. I hit the "svc" button and there was no "aux" to be found, so I think this particular unit doesn't have a connection. -- It obviously had a Satellite radio hooked up, does anyone have an idea where I might look to find the input jack?
  • I'd like to hack into the video in my TV module to add my iPhone's video to it and put a rear view camera in. Can I do this myself or is this a vendor-only deal? I work for a major Auto Manufacturer in their R&D division concerned with vehicle connectivity, so I'm pretty good at this stuff if instructions exist...
  • Are there any other cool mods to the head unit that are worth it? I understand that I can rid myself of the phone cradle and just have the V90 replacement bluetooth module?
Thanks for any advice, urls or information. I don't get to drive it much since my wife has taken possession of it -- but I get a 250cc Parilla!
