Here is the finished product. I am kind of rethinking doing a DIY because I ran into a lot of problems today.
The dock would not allow the Kenwood iPod cable to play music because the iPhone recognizes the dock and the cable and gives an error that only one accessory may be used. Needless to say I had to hack up the dock and custom fabricate my own dock. I basically pulled the guts of the dock out and used just the plastic white part as my base and fed the Kenwood iPod cable through the dock hole and secured it with crazy glue and a metal bracket. I then made a back support as member chops had recommended. I used half a Belkin IPhone case and wrapped it in vinyl. Some more crazy glue and lots of high hopes and this is the finished product. This was easily a 4 day project of trial and error. I assume it's a project not many will want to take on. But if you do, let me know and I will make a DIY.

Your contacts should sync right away. What headunit do you have? As far as Bluetooth goes, you can only play songs one by one through Bluetooth. If you want to be able to control your iPod, video and your playlists and such from your headunit, you need the Kenwood KCA-IP301V iPod Video Direct Cable. Hope this helps!

Just wanted to update this thread. After about 4 months of use, this iphone dock has not only been flawless, but I might actually be going into production to create this product for interested members. I have perfected the design flaws and my prototype is currently being patented. I will update as soon as my patent comes in. If you are interested in such a product, create a list here and after my patent comes through, I will contact AK about vendor status.

Yes it's very possible. You need the pioneer iPod cable which is part number cd-iu50v. Also an apple universal dock, some felt, super glue (for the felt) and lots of patience! If you need a step by step let me know I'll email ya something. I'm still in the process of getting this patented but I don't mind helping a couple forum members out. Thanks for the rep!

Well I just got my patent letter in the mail that says my patent infringes on numerous existing patents. Well looks like I'll be making a DIY for everyone. I just ordered one of these. Should be interesting. FLSHDOCKV2AV
