i hard wired my radar. across the roof lning and windshield. downinto the side fuse box on the dash. and even ran the mute button on the floor trim where the speaker is, to inbetween the plastic n the leaather on my seat. so i give it one effortless push and i mute out the stuiped malls. lol

I just did this earlier tonight and barring a few snags it was fairly simple. My only real problem is that I can't get the shift trim all the way back in and I'm afraid to force it and crack the wood!
I bought a Skydock SiriusXM device for my iPod touch and it works like a champ! More importantly because of this thread it looks clean!

Then once you lifted it up you can turn the cover plate 90 degrees and let it sit/hang to the passenger side and you have enough room to work.

I appreciate the reply, but, I already got the shift trim out and finished the work. My problem is that I can't get the shift trim back in now. I'm pushing with a good bit of force and it just won't seat and I'm afraid to start really twisting and jamming at it.

03 E500 and Corvette
Will this work on the 2003 E500? The 04's came with the option for the ipod but that wasn't available on 03's so I was wondering if the 03 has the same out put connectors?

If you want I'll make a video for you. Let me know.

The only drawback is that you cannot control the iPod with your COMAND, but only with the steering wheel buttons.

Mackhack, that would be awesome! I suppose I should just go out there and do it. The other problem is that it's just too damn cold and I just don't feel like it! Thanks for your help!

80 degrees . . . ha! It's barely half that right now in the Chicago burbs! I would love to see a video of this. I tried it again and it just isn't happening. I can barely see that it's hitting those tabs and I don't want to snap those off. I have more toys I wanna buy so I don't need to be breaking things and paying to repair/replace them!

Yep, my car is a work in progress project too as you can see from my signature I'm putting the power trunk closer in right now. Tonight it's most likely done and the car is back in one piece.

Nice! Ok, I don't need the video now. My tenacious friend managed to get the piece back in using a blade from my Leatherman to guide the metal pieces past the plastic tabs. My baby is back together for the time being and pumping out 80s classics once again! Thanks for the help!
