I dont think theres a way to do that since it goes through a different system and not just directly to the car stereo BUT ...I may be wrong
You should have a direct AUX connection in your glove box on the right hand side if you have the factory NAV unit.

ethernet jack in armrest
i have an 04 CLK55 also and the jack in the armrest is for bluetooth device. They sell cradle adapter kits which come with the device (V60) that enables bluetooth in the car. I havent bought one yet but they are like $300 bucks on ebay. I did put a DICE D2B mercedes iPod conversion kit into my car to replace the crappy CD changer and it works GREAT. They go for like $350 plus installation. Here is a pic of my iPod kit (with my iPhone) and the Bluetooth kit.

W208s don't have to be out in the cold.
Alpine makes an iDA-X305 head unit that reads digital files (not through the analog cable, but real digital output) from an iPhone, iPod, or any USB powered hard drive (32Gb thumb drives hold a lot of music). The iDA-X305 is Bluetooth capable (another $100), and using the PAC boxes will allow steering wheel controls to function and supply a balanced signal interconnection (which is what the BOSE amps are looking for). I paid a price comparable to the DICE unit.
