Real Mercs only frown

The only option on the Smart is an mp3 input which is basically and Aux in. Which I have gone for. For the £200 it cost I also got upgraded speakers/amp with a sub under my seat, to be honest I think it sounds every bit of the £200, really happy with it. This is why I want to keep it factory standard.

I am not sure if I want to use the iPhone in the car for music, I tend to put every song on the empeg in a random playlist and then just skip through a track at a time, I think I would have to unlock the iPhone every time I wanted to skip tracks, not something I would want to do. If I could find something that had hardware buttons on for skip track etc... then I think I would have to think twice again about the empeg.
