Yes.

Between Old_Hatch and I, we're tearing apart our RL's to see what makes the wiring tick.

That's awesome. I will wait. It was somewhat concerning me that if I did switch to iPod, I would lose the good ol' cd changer.

We're trying to figure out a way to make a switch, so you could go between the iPod and CD changer.

IMO, an FM modulator would also do the trick..

Just tap into the accessory power and use the switch.

^Some reviews state the sound quality is not as good as CD's with that FM modulator.

Thats possibly true for our cars.

FM radio sounds quite good on my stock system and assuming the music on your ipod/zune/whatever is high quality (not 128 kbps crap) it should sound quite decent.
