should be in the glove box.  look carefully for hidden/covered port.
may require glovebox removal to fish through and terminate.  have seen
tips/photos found in 211 forums in MBworld.org and no doubt other MB
sites.

Two methods.

Cheap way:

Get a mini cord and plug your iPod into the aux jack located in your
glove compartment.  It is hard to see.  It is located in the middle up
high in the top of the front of the glove compartment.  Although I have
heard that in recent years they removed this plug.

Press play on your iPod, select Aux, and enjoy.  You do not have any
controls, but it only costs you the price of a mini cord.

More expensive way.

Go to your MB dealership, have them instal the kit and your iPod will
plug in.  There will be a plug in the glove box that attaches your iPod
and charges it.  Your iPod is selected by choosing Aux.

It is not the greatest system since you can only control it by using the
steering wheel controls.  The controls are not exactly the greatest and
some features are missing.  You also can't do everything that you can do
on your iPod or on the dash system, but it is a better system than
nothing.

As I remember this cost around $400

Did you already install the retrofit iPod kit with the 2 harness's??
Kit number B67 82 4218
Without the kit, it will not work.
