Factory Headunit Aux In?

[AtomicInternet]

Does anyone know if there is an Aux In on the factory head unit? The one designed for the CD-Changer? If so, anyone find an adapter to use it?

I have another approach. I don't know about the factory headunit configuration for aux in, however, you can use an RF modulator.

This hooks into your antenna and you tune your radio to 88.3 and whatever you plug into the RCA jacks plays on the air!

I have a bunch of these if anyone wants one, $15 US each.

I am currently using one in my car. It even has a nice black plastic case with 2 mounting screw holes for hiding it away.

( My old company used to manufacture these )

Does anyone have an aftermarket Changer on a stock CD-Player? if so, what brand.... This will help determine whether there is a compatible Aux input for our stock CD players...

I have a kenwood head unit and it was really easy to hook up
this (http://www.crutchfield.com/cgi-bin/S-kLZj6QgMf4T/ProdView.asp?s=0&c=11&g=50900&I=113CAC1AX+) for my MiniDisc player... If our CD players can hook up to kenwood changers, I would assume that this plug would work. I've used an RF modulator and I didn't like it very much.

That's not true. Even if it's a brand name changer, it probably won't be labelled that way and it will have an OEM connector on it as opposed to aftermarket wiring which will make it difficult to identify. Trust me on this, I work for Pioneer and we are selling aftermarket style units such as amps and changers to Ford but they are made with different connectors and usually our labelling is not present, only a Ford part number.

Thank sucks... sorry. It was just a thought. I have a buddy that said that Subaru was putting in Clarion systems and doing the same thing, except you could use clarion connectors. This wasn't in a recent model subaru, so I don't know anything about that now. So are ford's audio systems made by pioneer??

Actually, yes, some are. That's my job. I work on the Ford Explorer, Rangers, Expeditions and the Lincoln vehicles ( all the Navigation systems ) such as the new Tremor systems in the Rangers. These are all Pioneer systems OEM from Ford!
