Hooking up an Ipod

I just got an Ipod for x-mas actually it's an 8G Sansa. The Deck in my 2004 Expy is a 6 CD changer/radio. There are no external jacks on it and I want to use the new toy in it. Are there any inputs in the back I can use and if so, what kind of cables might I need and how do I take the deck out?

Thanks
Vince

As far as instructions. Crutchfield has those in .pdf format.

If u have a rear factory DVD player, use a 3.5mm to stereo RCA jack converter (about 3$ at radioshack) and a RCA cable to connect it from the adapter to the roof DVD player auxilery input. Then use the CD/AUX selector on your headunit to switch to AUX and it'll play from the jacks. That's how I played mp3's from my laptop to my truck for my 3,500mi vacation this last summer.

The rear unit is just a control unit and not a CD player. I also don't have a Roof unit.
