Default iPOD Install tips

Anyone have direct install tips for iPODs to the (2005) Audi A4 Symphony Bose stereo? I haven't peered behind the Symphony deck yet to see if there are a set of outputs. Curious if anyone's done this...My friend uses the FM transmitter in his Jetta and the sound quality is poor...Always heard direct input is the best.

Thoughts?

Cheers,
Matt

Dension's Ice Link Plus is a direct link.

see if you can find a blitzsafe adapter, i got one for my 1998 and it works beautifully. you control everything through the ipod (which i'd prefer anyways) for a fraction of the cost of a dension. it was like 70 bucks.

Sweet...I'll check that out. Also, there's a journalist at Digital Life TV (www.DL.TV) who is suppose to be giving iPOD vehicle install tips this afternoon...I believe it starts at 4pm Pacific. Check out the link above.

If i'm correct, i think the iPOD kits wire in to the changers...It's how you control your iPOD from the deck. I may be wrong, but i think that's the correct way.
