Ipod adapters???

I picked up a leftover '08 VTX this past spring,(absolutely love it)but the stereo frustrates me almost every time out on the water! First off if there is a way to mute the stereo from the mux switches I would love to know about it....Secondly is there an adapter on the market that allows you to scroll through your songs (on your ipod) using the mux switches? Seems to me that there must be a company out there that has a solution to this problem.
