MP3 players/AUX in

Probably too early for serious hacking to have been done on the new E, but it seems like the little cavity in the dash for a 6 CD changer would be the perfect place for an MP3 player. Does anyone know if the stereo has the equivalent of an AUX in. Don't want to use either a cassette adapter nor an FM modulator.

Also if it matters, my car will come with upgraded HK audio and I also plan to retrofit DVD nav when available (I'm having the discounted price added to invoice)

Thanks

I hope it's possible. I heard some rumor that the new CD changer will be capable to play MP3 CDs. And entire navigation unit can be connected to internet to read e-mail or browse web sites. Old w210 has aux input in glove box, but I doubt that new w211 has something similar. All my hopes are on navigation unit which should be able do magic. BTW what is color of your ordered car?

I have an E320 Brilliant Silver/Charcoal Full leather, Sunroof Stereo package and heated seats.

Plan to pay for DVD-nav, wood steering wheel and possibly 6-disc changer as deal options when they are available.

I agree that it would be brilliant to be able to attach an MP3 player. If anyone figures it out, please let us know!!
