Repositioning the iphone connection

Hi All,
Picked up my new 2011 E63 black/black(all options except 030) on Friday. Totally love the car. I thought I saw somewhere that it is possible to relocate the iPhone hook up from the glove box to the center console. I did a search and came up empty. Is it possible?
Also, is anyone using the Media interface plus? I've seen mixed reviews.

Thanks in advance!

Im sure any professional audio store can rewire the cable to the center but I have not heard of anyone doing it yet here or I missed that post.

As for Media Interface Plus, never heard of it??

JMR,

I'm trying to decide between an '11 and a '12. How much off MSRP did you get on your '11?

Thanks,
Gene

Vic,

Thanks! That's what I was thinking. I'll take it to a stereo guy and have him re-route it. Just seems silly to have iphone in the glove box. I guess they figured it was for the ipod. MB has always been behind the tech curve in the entertainment area.

Thanks,

Jan

2010 E63
Where would the ideal place be in the center console to have the connector pop out if it was no longer in the glove box? Ashtray?

I'd like it in the armrest. My M6 had it in there. This way you have easy access to the phone.
