This adapter is awesome! As far as I know this is the only way to hook up an iphone to the stereo and still be able to use the other features (e.g. making calls). It should work well with ipods to since the built-in adapter is really lame. I don't know why VW didn't go with a simple AUX input like on most cars in this price range. Anyway, mine won't be back in my car until I decide to sell it...
BTW You guys can also remove that little black plastic cover from the front of the arm rest, and lead the audio cable through there. Just push it out from the inside with one finger -- it has small clips holding it. This way you won't need to shut the arm rest on the cable(s). Note: some of you may not have one as I didn't see it in Samhooah's pictures (I believe he has a 2007 GTI), but 2008 base models have them for certain. As for the "gaping whole" inside the armrest, it is actually cool, cause you can store more stuff in there. Don't worry, you won't lose anything unless they're very very tiny things.
