Here is a stupid question....

I just found a jack inside top of glove box. Does that mean I have IPOD hookup in the car. or do I need more parts than that. Will the steering wheel control it?

Yes, you can plug your iPod or any MP3 player into that jack with a mini plug cord. The steering wheel can only control the volume. You access your audio menu on your COMAND and select AUX to hear it.

That's just an AUX port, line-in to the stereo. You can connect your ipod to it, but it's not the same as the ipod connection kit. You won't be able to control the ipod via the steering wheel.

Yes and Yes, That jack is your AUX audio input, you can plug any audio source (I-Pod, Satrad, tape player) in to be played in cars system. To gain control function for I-Pod in the steering wheel, you must have a kit installed, the price is from $400 to $600.
