You will need the MDI box that fits in the armrest, and the iPod specific MDI cable.

Part numbers? Easy to find? Easy to swap out?

I guess you have not done the f/w upgrade yet Lee?

The new f/w allows the use of SDHC cards so you could just buy a 32Gb one and save yourself some hassle/money.

My dealer was doing this for £200 fitted a while ago but I believe on top of this you would need to buy an adapter for the ipod.

True hedge. I am on 2660. But I like the thought of plug and play of ipod.
Rather than exporting itunes library to sd card.
Unless there's an easy way?
