The End of IPod Searches for 2006-2008
I've been searching and searching for months. I wanted an iPod integration kit for my iPhone 3GS that works with the factory RAQ radio. This states that steering wheel controls can be used as well. And even better, it charges! Has aux input option as well for other mp3 players. I am ordering this now, but just thought I would share.
Model: PAC IPAC-CHY (also available at Crutchfield)
Priced for $99 with ebay link below.

iPod and Auxiliary Input Interface for Chrysler, Dodge, and Jeep Vehicles
Plug and play iPod and auxiliary audio input interface for late model Chrysler, Dodge, and Jeep vehicles.
Compatible with all bottom dock iPods including iPhone/Touch.
Charges iPod including iPhone/Touch with 5V charging.
Static free CD quality sound.
Using either the iPod clickwheel or factory radio or steering wheel controls (if equipped, may not work on some radios), customers can track forward and back for songs as well as rewind and fast-forward them.
Can jump from playlist to playlist from radio button.
Extra RCA aux input.
Compatibility Notes:
Compatible with RAQ, REC, and RAK series factory radios- written of the front right bottom side of front of radio.
If the vehicle has a VES (Video Entertainment System), it must be disconnected. The audio from the VES will no longer play through the factory stereo, but the video and wireless headphones will still function normally. VES does NOT operate in R.A.P. mode, the radio will automatically switch from the adapter to tuner mode during R.A.P. (Retained Accessory Power).
Compatible with factory installed satellite radio.

Just wanted to post that I installed this unit last night. It is working GREAT! Better than expected. I can leave my iphone on shuffle and flip through the songs using steering wheel controls. I tested the AUX option as well. Once installed, you hit the MODE button and it will cycled through DVD chap 1 and DVD chap 2. chap1 is my iphone chap2 is AUX for another mp3 player or other audio device. I can confirm that this also charges the iPhone 3gs. This unit acts as the VES or DVD options as you can see. My satelite subscription is over but it the mode for SAT is still there and my 6 disc mp3 cd changer is still working fine. EVERYTHING WORKS!

That is correct, I am able to toggle between Sat, CD, and Ipod (labeled as DVD).
I meant to take pics last night but ofcourse as you get frustrated while installing its the last thing you want to do for some reason. I'll try to take a pic of where I have the wires running. I have the AUX and Ipod wires running into the lower small tray in center of dash. I drilled a hole in the back left corner of this tray to run the wires through.
