Aftermarket headunit I would say.
Either one with an AUX in, or made for the Iphone.
There is a new Sony one that came out that the whole phone slides into. But I think that is more for iPods than iPhones.
Some newer headunits also act as Bluetooth speakers for devices which is awesome. Just make sure your phone's BT is on and it transfers the audio instantly.

They do sell iPhone/iPod adapters for Chrysler headunits, but those are usually the same price as an aftermarket unit. It's very easy to swap a headunit.

I guess in the end.. New Headunit, lol.

Enjoy!

Peripheral makes two pieces: iPod2car and PXDX. I used the PXDX and a JL Audio CL-SES to route signal from my Sat radio, overhead video, iPod, CB and Nav through the factory radio. Many aftermarket decks are bags of smashed asholes in a shiney wrapper.

It's too bad this forum doesn't have a search function or an electronics section so this covered information can be found easily.
