Hi
So I got fed up with my iPod tape deck input (too much noise from tape turning) and wanted a direct line in.
Following this guys idea:
http://www.mattgilbert.net/carstereoauxinput/
I pulled out the head unit and cut the four input wires from my cd player (which I never use anymore) and splice crudely in input jack wires. Whereas he shows two grey and two green wires, the model I have had yellow, red and white wires in the same location.
Now I got a poor mans aux input that runs when you press the CD button on the head unit (a CD has to be in the CD player).
(Pics on Matt site show most of what is needed, I didn't put in a control switch to keep the CD function though).
