Default Iphone and Monsoon

Is there any way to connect a new Iphone to the stock monsoon head unit? Ive tried looking, but most kits are just to aux in jacks.

you can do what i did, use your cassette player and plug your ipod to those old school CD player converters. sound isnt completely the same and can blow your speakers if you blast your music.
A smarter suggestion that i wish i knew more about is to use the input for the CD changer and plug your ipod into that. dont know what wires you need...
You can also ditch the shitty HU... Go Double din its easier to do it with a firebird bezel

There was someone a while back that was modding the OEM radios so you could use I-pods with it. That's all the info I have though.

This question gets asked every couple of weeks. Do a search on "iSimple" to get more information.
