I did not have a charging dock per se in my F150, but picked up this nifty little Griffin dual usb charger from Walmart for about $15. Of course, it uses the standard iPhone/iPod cable that came with your phone/device.

Perhaps you are looking for something that will plug into your radio aux port so you can play music too?

So you were looking for a method to mount it so it is not just "dangling" by the wire?.. I could use one of those.

Nope not me! I am still using CD's thats why I replaced the factory changer with a Pioneer that way my HU will control it :waytogo: that and the factory changer never worked when I bought the truck!

I like I pods don't get me wrong, I just hate their f**ing software :shooter: all of my music is thru media player and itunes causes nothing but problems when trying to run both!
