Please bear with me as I try to describe what I'm trying to do...I have little knowledge on stereo equipment and even less knowledge about cars.

I drive a 2005 Mazda 3. I'd like to install an auxiliary jack that would allow me to connect my iPod directly rather than using FM transmission. I was at my Mazda dealership last weekend and inquired about getting this done. For install, it would cost about $400 (including parts and labor) and close to $600 if I want my steering wheel controls to sync with my iPod.

Is there any cheaper way of having this done? Would having this done elsewhere void my Mazda warranty?

Thank you in advance.
