iPod hookups on 2010 FLHX

Hey all, I'm trying to research a few things before I buy a new Street Glide, but it takes forever to look through pics and threads with the crappy internet in Afghanistan. Can someone tell me if the 2010 FLHX's have a port/cable to connect the iPod to the stock radio? Just wondering if it's going to be another mod I'll have to add to the list. Thanks in advance.
Also, if anyone has any comments on comfort for a 6' 225lb guy for this particular bike, I'd appreciate it. Any tweeks in feet or seat. I'm used to my Street bob with forward controls and apes, so I'm guessing the new bike is gonna feel a little strange!

They have an AUX port that you connect to with a 3.5(?)mm cord. Plays through your radio and allows handlebar controls.
Can't answer your other question, I'm 5'9" on an Ultra and quite comfy.

I'm 6'0 at 200 lbs. All I did was remove the heel shifter to give more room on the floor board. If you like apes you'll probably want to change the handle bars. Some don't care for the the stock seat. I've done 600 mile plus days with no major problems. I guess it depends what kind of shape your hind end is in! Awesome ride!

Several companies make an adapter cable that plugs in to the cigarette lighter, i-pod then into the aux jack of the radio. This way the I-pod is kept charged. They are about 25 buck in the US. I have one on my Street Glide. I plug every thing in, put the I-pod in my windshield back, hit my play list and I'm good for hours of MY music.
