[QUOTE="aa21830, post: 683913, member: 558339"] I wanted to do the same thing with my radio, so I tried a Soundgate AUXGM in my Chevy Blazer. It required power, which I presume was to create a signal to make the radio recognize the auxiliary input. To make something similar, you would need to start with getting a harness to fit the back of your radio (try [URL="http://www.partsexpress.com/index.cfm"]Parts Express[/URL]) and would need to know which pins control what functions. Seems like it could be done. The problem I had with the AUXGM was that my stock head unit never would recognize the auxiliary source. After discussions with Soundgate tech support, we decided it might be that since my radio didn't come with any factory installed external audio devices (satellite radio, remote cassette, etc.), the radio must have had the auxiliary input disabled at the factory. I ended up putting in an aftermarket head unit with its own auxiliary inputs. [/QUOTE]
