If anyone is interested, I found an ipod interface that works perfect. I bought it from here:

Does this allow you to use factory installed Sirius and the Ipod? I guess you would have (2) preset Aux functions for Sirius and (1) for the Ipod? If that is the case, I'm definately going to buy one.

Thanks for the information!

 

I know that it has 3 inputs. RCA, Ipod, Xm Satalite Radio. You can have any 2 inputs. I don't think Sirius will work. You may want to call replacementradios and ask. I was going to get Xm because you can get it from Circuit city for $39.99 w/ $30 rebate and the cable(XIAH-XMC)for the interface is $17.99. I signed up for the xm online trial. After listening for a few days on my computer, xm pretty much played the same music I already had on my ipod. So I decided it's not worth it for me to get the xm tuner. As for the install, it took about 10 min. Just plug and play. Also, the ipod cable(XIAH-IPC)is identical to the plug that came with your ipod. The photo on the website is not the actual cable. I have full access to the ipod through my factory head unit,steering wheel and it also charges the ipod. Using the different EQ settings in the ipod make a big difference in sound quality. Much better than just using the bass and treble levels on the head unit. It was definately worth it for me. Now I look forward to driving my truck even more.

 

Will I be able to use this if I have the overhead DVD player?

 

According to this seller on ebay, it is not compatible with the overhead dvd.
You can read the compatibility at the following link.

I read all these posts with interest as I can't get an IPOD to work through my factory radio. I have an '07 with Sirius and it's got an input jack. I plug in the IPOD and follow the instructions (tap the AUX button), but the radio doesn't recognize it.

Does the IPOD not work with a Sirius-equipped radio?

 

I think you have to press the aux button 3 times until is says "line in"

 

Well, I guess my radio is bad. Thanks.

 

my truck wiring harness does not have a factory 16 pin connector in it. will this work with my truck?
