There are AUX/USB ports standard on all LCI cars. My car has CCC NAV, but it is an LCI car so I have a USB and AUX jack in my center console. The CCC recognizes an iPod and most USB audio devices and USB sticks ( formatted in FAT32) to play music and controls from the Entertainment menu

I don't think you can control Pandora, I haven't tried it. I have a 16GB iPod Nano that I leave connected to the car. The car charges it and plays the music.

For pre lci cars you can get an oem iPod interface that takes the place of the cd changer. (It basically emulates a cd changer) If you have the changer, it is plug and play. If not, you will need coding. The interface is a bit primitive, but it works and the sound quality is great.
