i dont think the iPod auxiliary input to Pioneer was ment to be use with a factory system.

you have 2 option in my opion
1. being really cheap and go buy one of those tape with the mini stero jack where you plug it into the headphone plug-in of the ipod.
2. spend some money and buy a aftermarket head unit with aux options. plug and play! sounds better too!

what aftermarket head units fit into the dash without looking really ridiculously obnoxious?

its not that bad especially under 20 dollar vs paying someone 200 or so to make a custome one. like to throw it out there so everyone has a bit more option.
