    Bros, want an simple iPod interface hook-up for an E-Class. Want a direct AUX link running through the glove compartment or equivalent. Definitely DON'T want an FM Mod solution.

    Not a complicated task, but just don't know any decent audio shops.

    Any suggestions appreciated.

    Thanks in advane.

    I have done this before. Question: is your head unit a in dash unit i.e. its part of the cars center console? or a 1 or 2 Din Alpine/Pioneer after market unit?

    Do you know if your head unit has an AUX in? or if you are lucky... is your HU ipod ready?

    Aiyah... call me lah...we chat.

    If I'm not wrong it's got an OEM Harmon Kardon unit. Any capable shop should be able to mod it. I did plug-in a multi-pc disc changer linked to the boot.

    I'm not into car audio but some other boys here like Lung & Leslie should know where to go.

    Speaking of which I need to install a head unit with 7" LCD+back-up camera. I'm using Chong from Shell who happens to do some work for ES & Autobahn. Maybe you can speak to him? Honest guy.

    Hi, reviving this thread.

    Have checked with a few local audio shops based on some adds I saw. Everybody is able to install a double-DIN GPS system on a Nissan or Toyata, but nobody to date has been able to figure out how to provide a direct AUX-equivalent iPod hook-up for a Lexus LS460. Expertise (or lack thereof) of aftermarket workshops seems a little surprising, but maybe I'm just not looking in the right places.

    Just checking again to see if anybody have a hook-up for a good after-market audio specialist. The 460 surprisingly doesn't appear to have an AUX input so will need another solution.

    Thanks in advance for any leads.

    Regards.

    I know, I know. Massively spec'd tho as you note due to lower (no?) taxes above certain level.

    I'm thinking about a few things...and will likely take the plunge next year.

    Did you manage to connect with you-know-who?
