Best way to connect my ipod to my AVH P7500? Also pics of my car.

[BMWAUDIO]

Hey guys as you can tell iam new to this site. Reasoning for joining is, i enjoy car audio, and i want to learn more. This stuff is addicting lol.

I have basic knowledge of sound systems, iam no expert, but i love great sound, and sound systems.

So back to my question. I have a AVH P7500 in my Bimmer, iam wondering whats the best way to connect my ipod to the HU (or brain idk) without losing any quality. I know there is the AUX cable, and then i saw one that also has the red/white. yellow cables. Which one is the best? Iam getting sick of CD's and the ipod is the best way since i have all my songs on there. Iam going for a stealth/factory look. Also can it charge the ipod, or iam i going to need another cord to charge it?

Thanks guys for the help.

Here are some pics of the my car. Please enjoy. When my car is out of the shop iam going to take some pics of the interior for you guys.

Use the pioneer unit that allows you to hook up the Ipod to that headunit? Unless the headunit is already Ipod capable.
