Yes, the plugon the from of the radio is an RCA plug, but make sure to get a cable that plugs into you iPod with the wide plug at the bottom. Thesame plug you would charge it through. If you use the earphone plug on the iPod, you will be greatly disappointed. Volume is low and sound quality not very good.

The plug on the front of the radio is NOT RCA, it is a 3.5 mm mini. Here is the cable to which I think the OP refers:

Ipod Dock Cable End Male to 3.5mm Cable Aux input MM - eBay (item 250736304444 end time Mar-02-11 04:28:28 PST)

That is a pretty cool cable. I didn't even know they made one like this. Definitely a good option for those not wanting to swap out the HU.

Hey BigRob, thank you. I had no idea I could connect the iPod in any other way than through the headphone jack and I ordered one today.
