I tried my nano with the aux cord, like I did in my previous car. The volume level is horrible, even at higher volume settings on the ipod. I made sure all the connections were tight. I might try a different cable.

For anybody that just has a bare bones Prius trim II, and just wants a PMP to use via the AUX jack, I would personally suggest the Meizu M6. Buy.com is selling it for $32 after a $19 MIR. It was a few dollars cheaper last week when I bought one (my first one died after several years of faithful hard useage), but it's still a very good deal at $32. The reason I'd recommend this particular player is that, in addition to it being known for its exceptional audio quality, it also has a host of EQ and spatialization settings you can tweak, that help you to greatly overcome the near lack of EQ controls in the base model 2010 Prius. I only spent a few minutes playing around with mine today (only have had my Prius a few days), but was able to really zero in on some good SQ. It certainly doesn't hurt that all my digital music is encoded as FLAC, and I'm sure other PMPs will give very good results as well. But for anyone in the market for a PMP to use with their Prius trim II, or higher trim models as well of course, you could do a lot worse than spend $32 on a Meiuze.

I have Apple iPod Nano Video from accessorygeeks, this toy is easier to find the song you want to hear. You can view your album art in Cover Flow. Or just press and hold the Center button to browse by album or artist. You can get in on games made especially for iPod nano and the accelerometer.You can watch movies, TV shows, and videos. It's the world's biggest small screen.
