Okay. I have a myGig. If you have a myGig all you need is a cable that plugs into the back of your radio. Too the dealer 4 weeks to figure this out. I'll post the part number later today.
For those with other radios, you will need a different cable and module.
I had mine installed (you can do it yourself, but since the dealer screwed everything up, they did it for free) on Saturday and it works great.
However, the idiot installer took 2.5 hours. Honestly, really!
Also, I have discovered that all of the left speakers in my truck don't work now. I am going to pop the dash off this afternoon and re-seat everything and see if it works then.

The part number 82211853 is it for those with my gigs.
There is another thread on removing the dash. I will caution again, you need to pop the over that surrounds the 110 volt plug. Do that by inserting a flat head in the slot BELOW the plug and pull up which should pop the bottom off. Then pull with some equal force to ge the whole thing off. There is a torix bit behind it.
Remove the chrome flashing around the shifter if you have a lower center consol.
Remove the rubber liner in the foward tray of the lower center consol.
Remove the two phllips head screws below.
Remove the lower center consol by pulling up
Remove the rubber mat on the top tray on the upper center consol.
Remove the two torix bits.
Remove the plastic tray.
Remove the torix bit describe above holding the 110 volt plug.
Gently begin to pull the upper center consol dash piece off.
Remove the electrical connectors for the everything below the radio.
Assembly is the reverse.

Hiding the iPod properly and having integrated controls on the nav system is much cleaner and more functional. Plus, your iPod charges when your vehicle is on.
PS. The "$" goes in front of the number, and you don't use a space in between your last letter and the punctuation that ends the sentence.
Edit - So I was a little rough on the guy at first...

Because using a line in cable to plug your $140 iPod into your $45,000 truck looks unfinished and cheap.

I rather be unfinished and cheap than impolite and rude to a fellow dodge owner.
Sorry if my first post ruffled your feathers !
PS : with such impressive grammatical skills , you must be a devil with the ladies...
