Some head units won't allow you to use the aux inputs unless it "sees" a CD changer connected to the control cable. So in some cases you have to fool the car into thinking it has a CD changer then you can use the aux input.
I found an article last week about how to mod built-in ICE to add your own mp3 player or DVD player, can't find it now though.

I've ditched my head unit all together and just run an MP3 player directly into my 4 channel amp using the cable that used to connect the head unit to the amp, with the addition of an adapter bought from maplin for £3.  All the volume control is done on the MP3 and it sounds so much better than it did when it was going through the head unit.  The other benefits of this are increased security as the car looks like it doesn't even have a stereo.  and less weight which allways helps in a traffic light grand-prix

Kenwood have the kca-ip500
Pioneer - cdib100
Alpine - KCA-420i
Sony - ASOiPOD001 (MES product)

Your standard VW headunit can be linked to the iPod using a sony CD changer interface and then the sony iPod interface.

None of the units come with the ipod connection as standard. not that I know of anyway. All the above adaptors require headuints that have CD changer controls.

If you use a AUX input you won't get track names or control over your ipod. Nor will the iPod be charged during use so if your battery in the ipod runs out that's it. of course you can use a in car ciggy lighter power plug.

The above ipod interfaces a priced around £69.99
