If I didn't miss it - how'd you install the iPod charging cable?

Also, does this still allow you to use the Satellite Radio?

Sorry if I wasn't clear on this. If you have a 5th generation iPod nano, you will need to be sure the connection cable that comes with the media gateway is compatible. Older media gateway units came with a cable that wouldn't charge the 5th gen. nano while it was docked to the stereo. The newer units come with them. Just be sure you get an updated one. Talk to the retailer to be sure. Step 18 displays a picture of the docking/charging cable.

Yes, your satellite radio will still work. When you power on the stereo you will be able to scroll through and select your iPod, satellite radio, HD Radio (assuming you installed the HD tuner) and auxiliary input. This modification adds to your stereo. It doesn't take away any preexisting functions. I made sure of that prior to install because I didn't want to lose what I already had.

If you have any other questions, please feel free to ask.
