Ive got a 2005 Mustang with the Shaker 500 cd system. What i cant figure out is the Auxiliary button. Is it just a standard headphone cord that plugs into the back of the system or what? How do i plug my ipod into the stereo? I mean unless im misunderstanding is that what i can do?

 

I have an 07, and the Ipod hookup is in the middle console.

 

theres nothing in the middle console except a power supply. So does anybody else know or have any ideas where it is?

 

come to think of it, i dont think the 05 or 06 had that option, i think the aux button is just for sat radio

 

I think theAudio Jackin the consoleis only in 2007+ Mustangs. You can plug in your portable audio player. Mine has it.

 

05 has one in the back of the head unit, 07 they started putting them in the console...you just need to get the unit out and run a cord to a somewhere you like and leave it there

 

Does this mean that I can hard wire my Sirius radio into the back of an '05 Shaker 500??

I remember threads on this topic a year or so ago, and there was talk of all kinds of electronic adapters and whatnot, most of which were either a rip-off or not too effective.

 

well there are always ways to make it work, and if anything you could just buy a new factory unit off ebay or something for $200

 

You need the Aux adapter (PIE FRD04-AUX)to run an external MP3 playerto your AUX port. They may also have released an Ipod specific adapter since I bought mine, try a search on www.pie.net. On the 05-06 the AUX was actually designed for the rear radio/DVD controls, which of course they did not use. If you get the adapter, you are basically fooling the Shaker into believing your Ipod or Mp3 player is actually a DVD player.

Underbird10 is correct. I have two other 2006 Fords with the AUX button and no plug. You got to buy that part from Ford. And if you buy it from someone other then Ford and have any electronic issue, Ford WILL NOT cover under warrenty. They will say your non-Ford Electronic part casue it. You will HAVE to prove it did not. Just FYI.
