How do I use my Ipod with this fancy stereo?

I just got a 2010 ralliart with the premium package. The problem is that I can't seem to plug my ipod into it to listen to my music. The only jack I see is when I hit the open button, but I can't operate the stereo when it's swung open. How do I play music from my Ipod thru the rockford fosgate stereo.

There should be a USB plug in the glove box in the upper left hand corner. Just plug your ipod cable into that and then you can control the ipod thru the radio controls.

Doesn't seem to be anything in the glove box. There is an old style a/v connection, with the red white and yellow near the ashtray. Could I use a wire with the red and white prongs on one end and a regular 3.5mm audio prong on the other in AUX mode?

You are correct, in a 2010 you have to use the red/white cables and select aux. on the stereo. There is no usb connection for the 2010.

I have tried a couple of those fm transmitters for the ipod but honestly I was disappointed with them. I ended up getting short cables and leaving them plugged in the rca inputs. The main disadvantage is that the ipod will not charge but that may not be too bad.

I got the av cable. It works well after widening the prongs as the holes seem to be a bit big. I can't get blutooth to work. When I try to use blutooth, or access the blutooth system via the console It says there's a system error.

As far as I have read and dug into this matter I can't find anywhere that says you can Bluetooth stream music.
