Ah but funny you should ask about the iPod install.  My new Chicago
based A8 pal, Paul Waterloo is the king of this sort of thing and has it
extremely well documented on his A8 website.

Us urS car nuts should have a site as comprehensive as this... but I
digress.
I am 99% certain the Bose radio he has is the same Delta as in the 95
S6's.  There's, no doubt, enough info here to do this install for the
earlier S model too as they are fairly similar. (I think?)
I have mine removably mounted on one of these Pro Fit mounts:

html

I got some of the 3M mushroom/ velcro type adhesive fasteners (Ace
Hardware) cut into about 1/2" squares applied to the back of the ipod
and covered the whole surface of the "Pro Fit" holder with the opposing
mating surface.
I moved the passenger seat heater switch to the left, took out the slug
and just have the coiled wires running out the hole to the iPod for a
very clean install.  The ipod is easily tunable mounted here or;
removable / holdable whilst tuning.  
The iPod is indeed very cool and the moodlogic software is remarkable.
It takes all of your titles and runs them through their database that
corrects spelling, fills in missing info and allows you to select music
based upon criteria shown on the screen shot here:

Transferring the music into the iPod is a snap.
So, you could come home and say "give me some fast, upbeat, easy
listning music by the Afro Cuban All Stars."
Then all we'll need is voice recognition software and someone to bring
us our drink and slippers;)
HTH

A friend just got the iPOD, he says it's awsome, he can't stop raving
about it !!!

It took me awhile (as usual) but I finally have almost 1800 songs on my
iPod now and last night installed the  http://www.moodlogic.com/ music
organization software.
Awesome just friggin awesome!  Choose songs by song, artist, album,
genre, tempo, mood and even range of year/s.  
The iPod connections are hardwired into the Blose, can be unplugged and
worn whilst washing car, taken on vacation and played through any
available stereo with aux. inputs.  
I have often read of the audible shortcomings of mp3, but to my deaf
ears and stromunged goofy car it's not a factor.
Get an iPod on your holiday gift list and hardwire that sucker in
there:)
