Aux input for radio?

Postby smokinjoe [OP] » February 8th 2017, 5:12am

Well I searched for a long time but can someone link me to the thread that explains how to get a 3.5mm input into the stock stereo? I thought it was astrowill who did it but any help would be great.

Thanks Will, I can quite figure out what your tapping into on those pics. Will it be more obvious once I open the radio?

Also, if I don't care about mounting the jack in the radio body do I still open the radio or can I tap into the wires from cd player to radio?

It's the audio wires from the built in CD player. Yes you should be able to tap into the remote CD player as well, as long as your remote CD player is functioning enough to tell the radio that it's there and has a CD in it :)
