Question iPOD & SIRIUS HELP NEEDED

I know this has been discussed over and over, and I've searched through a bunch of threads, but only confused myself even more.

Can someone shed some light on connecting an iPOD to the factory head unit?... no FM modulation. I know there are a variety of options, and I've looked at some wiring options such as using iPOD2CAR from PERIPHERAL ELECTRONICS, but it says that it won't work with a factory 6-disc changer. Also, I'm looking to get SIRIUS, as well, and want to have both connected.

HELP, Please.

PIE. That's what you need to connect audio (via RCA plugs) to your radio. ~$85.

You'll need to find some manually switchable device to run multiple sources into this one input. Can do it via manually switching two sets of cables, find a switching box, or something else.

Get the PIE unit, its very easy to install.

I intalled it along with my SIRIUS sportster and it works awsome! I've had both XM and Sirius and IMHO Sirius is the way to go. I have 3 tuners and have recommended them to several friends and family members.
