My father is going to order the new 2006 (9th generation) S-class in the next few weeks and he wants me to hook up his i-pod similar to the way I have mine integrated in my BMW. It is a BMW accessory that is $150 that wires your i-pod to your stereo, chages it and allows you to control the songs with your steering wheel. Does MB make something similar that he can order from the factory or is there any other options??? Thanks for your help.

 

If you meant 2007 model, it should have iPod kit as an option.
You can purchase it from the dealer.
