Well, I am getting a 20gb ipod and would like these features:

use the steering wheel controls, and for it to charge automatically while Im driving.

That requires the icelink+what else?

how much do you think a good audio installation shop would charge me. Wheres some do it yourself tutorials for a 2003 Cl Type S?

Price wise what am I looking at?

Sorry it's in my "Working List" sticky thread up top..

 

no steering wheels controls other then volume...but it works very well for me!

Here is what I did and the results...

Well...both the dock and the cupholder needed some aleration in-order to fit. I cut slots in the cup holder so that it would fit below the top of the cup holder. I also removed the weight and mounted two L-brackets to the back of the dock. Then I screwed the L-brakctes to the bottom of the cup holder. The dock needed a lot of it cut away, but with some time and effort you can make it fit. I am using a blitz-safe adapter to connect it to the head-unit. I am using the dock line-out and I connect that small plug of the line-out to a set of rca's that connect to the blitz-safe. I also have a belkin car charger pluged into the other connector on the back of the dock and that plugs into the power adapter in my center console. This makes it so that the iPOD charges while the car is on. The tricky part of the whole install was trying to find a line out that would fit between the dock and the cup holder space, I ended up using the iPOD monster cbale that connects the small line-out plug to the rca's. The key to that cable is that the mini-plug has a cover on it, which can be unscrewed so that it can bend in a 90 degree to get around the space issue.

Hope this helps...
