OEM stereos do not have RCA cables. An empty input is for either the SAT out or subwoofer. If you dont have an external mini jack out on the "stuff" tray at the top of the dash, you need to get an ipod adapter box.

I assume you have the regular 6 disc changer. I got a PIE Aux adapter. This is basically a harness / box that lets you hook up RCA Cables. to your head unit.
Do a google search for PIE AUX Adapter.

Its a plug and play system except for splicing a ground wire and a power wire.
