05 Audiophile HU w/o MP3 capability

The kicker is, that when I checked it out online a few months back, the head units without the MP3 got better sound ratings that the heads with MP3 capability. Deeper, crisper, more responsive bass and better sound throughout. My trucks window sticker says audiophile w/ MP3 so I was going to make it an issue with my dealer at first, but the better sound quality is more important to me than MP3 use cause I got an IPOD.
I just bought an 05 F150 Lariat with the same head unit, I think. I don't care about the MP3 capability, because I plan on hooking up my ipod, and since you siad the specs were better on this one, I think that I'll keep it. Where did you find the Ipod connection kit, and where do you find the HU number? I pulled the HU out, and tried searching with all of the numbers I could find on it, and I can't find any info.
