I don't have any a DVDs system. So you thinking no one makes a adapter for aux to aftermarket head unit?

Would you feel better about this by installing the storage tray that doesn't have the aux input?

Not going to lie I was just looking into that. I think that is a good option. If it don't work I don't want it there so that could work

I want a 2700 like that. Think I will buy myself one for Christmas. If I'm not mistaken the 2700 is the one that you can customize the screen on. Again Summers is killing me with that ford background on this stereo so now I gotta have one.

Yep, that's the right plug -- no idea that existed. You'd just need the RCA to stereo adapter to go into your head unit. Problem solved.
