And once I connect that, what functionality can I access via the car stereo and/or the steering wheel?
The only functionality via the wheel and the stereo is to increase or decrease volume.

The best cable is the monster low profile car charger:

You also need a 3.5mm to 3.5mm phono cable - surprisingly difficult to find but Currys should have a few in stock:
