Default Installing iPod without sacrificing CD changer -- can it be done?

I would like to run my iPod through my stock OEM Bose head unit without giving up my CD changer and without having to use the crappy cassette/FM radio adapters. Does anyone know if it's possible, whether by IceLink or Blitzsafe or otherwise, to get a set-up whereby the iPod is directly linked to the head unit without having to sacrifice the CD function?

Thanks.

Default if you mean not lose the internal changer, you can do.

If you mean not lose the external changer, not without a switch, that someone here makes. Blitzsafe and Dension make adapters that REPLACE the EXTERNAL changer with a RCA input.

Default Is this compatible with Bose systems with XM?

Most other things I've seen specifically state that they don't work if you have XM.

It has nothng to fool with Bose at all, and yes, if the XM has line-outs, it will work.
