You just saved my wife'* iPOD'* life! (And probably my life, too )

I gotta say, even though I paid $100 for this iPAC-OEM unit and I'm not getting full function out of it, the fact that it'* only one cable to the iPOD for both audio and charge AND that that one cable is like 8 feet long and reaches anywhere in the cabin, made it worth it.

Does that mean i can just cut the original cable, and add the new cable in in a t-shaped connection?
