iPop Integration for 05 G55

Can anyone help... the Benz dealership surely can't. Owning a benz is not what it use to be.

It is possible to wire your ipod's audio directly into the line-in of the COMAND unit in your G55, but the new Mercedes iPod integration kit mentioned on the MBUSA website is not compatible with the electronics on the G-Class. If you use the first option, the line-in, you get superior audio quality but it requires ordering a special cable from your dealer and removing the COMAND unit to connect it. Search the forums and you'll find threads discussing this back in 2002.

One suggestion, read this thread. Several options are mentioned. The G-Class uses older electronics which are not compatible with the Mercedes iPod kit. It's likely the 2008 G-Class will have an updated interior with the newer electronics, but for now it is still possible to have high-quality audio from the iPod pumped through your G55's harmon/kardon sound system using an audio line-in cable.
