Where can I buy the Aux-Input wire from my iPod? I have the stock AUX input in my glovebox (I have COMAND) but I can't find the wire which will enable me to connect the iPod to the AUX jack... Can anyone help?!?!

Hi Frisco
There is a couple of ways now, Theres a new toy out which allows you to hook it into the d2b setup but if you have got a cd changer you would loose it as it emulates the cd changer software allowing you to change tracks and volume from what i have read.
Also there is the FM mod which is ok but alot of people say you will loose quality.
If you need any more info let me know

Have not tried the FM modulator (i.e. Griffin iTrip) with the new CLK, but in my Audi it was absolutely terrible.
The tape adapter is the best "cheap fix" except for I can't stand having a wire hanging out. But if that doesn't bother you, go for it.
.........waiting for the day we have bluetooth iPods

I bought my auxilliary cable at Best Buy. I think they have them at Radio Shack, too. Just look for a cable with a male stereo mini-jack at each end. Of course, this doesn't give you any ability to control the Ipod. I just set mine on random play and let it decide for me what I am going to hear.
