Ipod Hookup In 2007 Santa Fe W/rse Options

[rsarvas]

Okay. I have been trying to solve this problem for weeks. I have a 2007 Santa Fe (non-Infinity) Factory stereo with factory sub and amp. I also have a factory rear DVD player. I am trying to run my ipod/iphone off my stereo. Here is what I have looked into:

1. Replace Head Unit
PROBLEM: Not sure if after-market unit will run rear DVD. Many blogs are stating issues with this.

2. FM Transmitter
PROBLEM: Have one, sound sucks, especially with antenna in the rear.

3. AUX Input add-on
PROBLEM: Have looked into every brand and none work with stereos that have internal XM tuner (which I supposedly have, since I run XM and it came with the car.)
So, if anyone has a solution I am all ears. I am willing to replace my head unit if I can know it won't interfere with running my rear DVD. I am also willing to hook up an AUX device to the wiring in the rear of the head unit, assuming I can find one that actually is compatible with my stereo.

I feel that I am at a loss.

You could do a hard wired FM modulator. It plugs into the antenna socket behind the factory deck, and when you want to use the IPOD, the unit blocks all frequencies except the one you use fotr the IPOD. It works quite well, we do it at my shop all the time. Generally costs about $200.
