Default How can I connect my iPhone?

I have a 2004 Limited with Sirius Satellite Radio and 6 CD changer. I dont really want to replace the radio as it seems to have a lifetime free subscription to Sirius XM and I do like that. But I would somehow like to connect my iPod to it (not via the crappy FM transmitter---they dont work well in Los Angeles, I understand).

I wish there was some sort of updating kit that brought high tech to my car--bluetooth and iPod functionality would be great.

Anyone done anything like this?

There are iPod connection kits out there but I'm not sure if any of the work with the iPhone. Somebody will have to chime in on that. If nothing is available, you can try calling Sirius to see if you can transfer your lifetime subscription to a new deck. I got a decent Pioneer deck from my brother. The iPod connection cable was under $10 shipped on eBay. The satellite radio tuner is around $40 shipped on eBay. The sound quality is much better than the factory deck as well.

I have a Kennwood 642u. It is ipod direct, which will work with your iphone. I have the auxiliary cable coming out of the back of the radio and the wire runs into my glove box where I connect the wire and my iPod. I like it because it doesn't show I keep my iPod in the glove box, and I can control all of my iPod on the radio!



EDIT:

I'm pretty sure the stock radio doesn't have an auxiliary in the back to hook up, and I KNOW for sure it doesn't have one in the front, unless the radio changed from 2004- 2005 but
