Don't go with Mazda. There are cheaper options, which have more to offer. Search for the grom adapter.

I have no experience with the OEM iPod adapter but I do have an older Grom IPD3 with the BTD (bluetooth) add-on and it works great.

Grom customer support has been good, as well.

I went with XCarlink, works great. also added the Bluetooth option for when I feel like streaming music through phone (also nice to have hands free calling)

I have a factory iPod adapter in my JDM RX-8. You can change the track, album, artist and playlist from the dash. It doesn't display the track name though.

That's about it

Get a GROM adapter
