I have got an ipod connector in my glove box and it works with my iphone.

Thanks for the replies. Will have a go later. I assume you can't control the iPhone as is the case with the iPod?

This was a factory option with the MFD2 in MY2007. Came with several adaptor plates to accomodate the different iPod variants. Only got an iPod nano personally

You won't be able to close the armrest. However, the cablejive cable works a treat. I have mine connected to the cable, and it sits sideways in the armrest next to the slot rather than in the slot. Armrest then closes fine.

Factory fit is vertical in armrest cubby. Just slots in no problem. Came with several adaptor plates to suit the different iPod variants

I've had this problem with my iphone, didn't know you could get a cable to sort the problem, where can I find this cablejive?
