Default Audio in on a Ford head unit?

Is there a simple and cheap way to connect an iPod to a factory-fitted


Ford

head unit (it's a 6000 - type, in a new model Mondeo)? I know that there


are

proprietary cables on the market, but is there a simple bodge


connection(s)

that will persuade the head to accept the audio output from the iPod? I'm
not wanting to have the head unit do anything clever like track changing -
just volume up and down will do ;o)

TIA

This may not be 100% correct but someone told me that the latest Ford head
units have an AUX in facility with the socket being in the glovebox. Can
anyone confirm?

Cheers,

Simon


Yes, on the Sony radios that is the case. I am not sure if the socket in
the glovebox itself has to be bought separately.
