I just didn't want to rip off the whole MOST change/amp/radio thing.

Couldn't I put a second stereo with ipod input in the trunk and tap into the speaker wires of the oem bose stereo that is in the car to get my ipod to work?
I read today in a search that the speaker wires are not MOST/digital in the 2003+ my's
I guess I would need to get a stereo with a remote and snake the ipod cable into the cabin through the firewall.
Any reason this would not work?
tapping in the stereo wires ouahh.. never heard of this be tried before.
after many research I went ahead and install a Dension Gateway, even though the price is really high +- $450, it maintain the OEM look. After couple weeks using it I am very happy with it, but I think I should have waited and spend the extra $ to get a double DIN unit with GPS bluetooth and all that good stuff. I just didn't want to rip off the whole MOST change/amp/radio thing.
many say that with a good double din you don't even really need an amp for good sound. many went with amp addition but not sure it is required.
see my DIY about the dension on renntech

Go for the double din, that is the best bang for the bucks and all is integrated, only drawback you loose the OEM look.
I just swapped out the whole deck for a Kenwood BT900 Ipod and blue tooth for $300. Looks and sounds great. It's was cheaper than trying to add something onto the stock deck.
Philoo- thanks for the info. I am thinking about the Denison but in a way it seems like i am paying $450 for an adapter.
I guess I will take a look at new units- is the Kenwood black like the Porsche unit and easy to install?
johonole- The Kenwood dropped right in. It's black and has selectable color for the UI so it can match the rest of the dash colors. It's a little thing but it bug me when the lights don't match.
