Aux input mod - Instructables

I don't know if this has been mentioned before (I'll delete it if it has - man my memory has been bad lately) but I found this on instructables a month or so ago, and it works!

My solder job on the 3.5mm jack is a bit dodgy, but it does work well. I would like to figure out how to commandeer the cd stacker button rather than use the switch - but I'd need to work out a latching circuit that trips off when another button is pushed. And I'd have to disassemble the head unit even more... I smoked a track doing this as it is, so I ended up tinning the right sized wires and inserting them into the right sockets in the plug (after I repaired the pcb track) . Should have done that to start with.

Anyway, here's the link. http://www.instructables.com/id/Add_an_ ... ad_Unit_I/

nice.

I did a similar mod for people with pioneer head units when i was younger. Sounds so much better than an FM modulator

subarino, some depending on how old it is pioneer units you can change the aux out to and aux in, pretty sure i can with mine!

With the Pioneer one... it's a bit of a worry the amount of times he suggests you could blow up your Ipod. But very interesting... thanks.
