Agreed! I knew there was another option out there, I just couldn't remember the name.. Trip Tunes it is!

FWIW, I'd still search Craigslist and eBay and see what I could come up with, as you'll have far more options with an aftermarket head unit.

You can buy the PIE adapter cheap. It plugs into a port on the backside of the stereo and then you run a wire to wherever you want to install the aux jack.

I have on the garage.. never got around to doing it yet. You have to take apart the whole center console, remove stereo, etc.

Just swap out the HU. Its really simple to do.

Simple to install and pretty cheap....get the PIE AUX adapter.

I installed this in the spring. You simply take apart the head unit and plug this device in to the current OEM wiring harness. You need to splice the power plug on your center unit for power.

I have little/no experience installing stuff like this but I did it easily with basic tools and the instructions. There are plenty of online tips on the forums also. Few tricky screws on the back side of the center unit, and its a tight fit for your hands unplugging the OEM wire harness but with a little patience you'll have it all done in no time.

here is a link to the PIE device, check around for the best deals - http://www.amazon.com/PIE-FRD04-AUX-...9131152&sr=1-1



*edit - also test the unit for power and sound volume before putting it all back together. always a good tip.

I just swamped my Shaker 500 out for a Pioneer. Besides now having iPOD connectivity like the rest of the world, it independently controls the subs in the doors. The factory speakers sound a lot better with a aftermarket head unit.

Don't forget the best part. You can put in a 8 gig sd or mini SD card, and load it up with your songs.

Who needs an IPOD or aux adapter now?
