Any stock radios with Aux input?

I have an '02 4Runner with the standard single CD player. I also have a Sirius satellite radio that I would like to hardwire to an aux input on a stereo. I would like to know if there is a model of stock Toyota stereo that will accept an aux imput?

Thanks

The Scion's have a model that does... don't know if it was offered in the newer runners and trucks or not. I'm sure others will provide more input. But if all else fails, check out the Scion radios.

You should have a changer input on the back of your existing player. There are several companies that make adapters for this to make it an aux input. I have one for my iPOD. USA spec is one. Do a search or check out Crutchfield.com.

The way it works is you plug this in and when you want to use the aux input, you push the CD button and it will start the CD then you push it again and the display will read CD1 and it is on. My iPOD one lets me control the iPOD from the stereo...it also has an auxillary input on the side of it.

I just ordered a USA Spec df-toy unit, it has 2 aux inputs but no specialized Ipod input. I plan on plugging my sirius radio into one of the inputs and plugging a second set of RCA wires into the other input for my mp3 player. I should be getting it by next weekend, so after I install it I'll let you know how it works and how hard it was to put in.

I'll do a shameless plug here, take a look at what I'm trying to get myself rid of, it's more or less just what you need: https://www.yotatech.com/forums/f109.../#post50632862

Installed a Peripheral PXDX

Just installed Sirius myself, and a local audio store recommended the Peripheral PXDX model - basically comes with the brain box and Y-harnesses to fit a bunch of Asian vehicles over the last 10 years or so. Among all of the other devices out there are gaps in the information about what fits what, but this one pretty much hits them all, though you are paying for a bunch of extra wiring harnesses you will end up throwing out. Program the dip switches on it for your model of vehicle, and away your go! Sounds great, and with the proper setting of the switches, I did not experience the low volume others reported with the USA Spec and others.
