Default 2006 f150 aux port

Does anyone know how i could get an aux port without buying a new stereo? i know i can get a wire running from the back but i just don't think that looks good. the 2007 and newer models had them coming out of the top of the dash on that black piece does anyone know if i can do that? thanks

I have an 05 Lariat with 6 disc changer. I am intersted in this as well. The stereo has an "Aux" button but I can't find an input (have not read the manual yet, but will shortly). If anyone knows of an "input" trick let us know.

Ask Tasca on his thread if he can help you out and get you the parts for the Aucilary jack upgrade.

It seems I am now "open" to the rest of the forum and have found this... 2004-2008 Audio Basics

Freaking beautiful! Exactly the info I had hoped to come across

Just went through that with my Windstar. There should be two RCA inputs on the back of the radio, you need the adapter that goes from RCAs to the headphone plug.

Default How about this?

Got one of these for my "97 but ended up getting rid of the truck before I installed it. Still have it in the box-probably gonna put it in the Subaru.

I don't know about the factory radios, mine's aftermarket.

Those FM modulators suck big time. Best to have a direct plug in.

get the PAC/PIE FRD04 which connects to your radio and give you the rca inputs for the radio:
https://www.f150forum.com/f4/how-ins...ux-port-91213/



and you can get this other thing, the "PAC iSIMPLE IS335 3.5mm Dash Mount Aux Input Kit" which is the female port for your dash, with the wire that will connect to the rca inputs that now you have in the PAC/PIE FRD04 unit... it will give you a cleaner install:
http://cgi.ebay.com/PAC-iSIMPLE-IS33...item2c5d7cfa77
it comes with the female stereo port for the dash, an stereo-stereo 3.5m cable to connect your ipod/mp3 player/cellphone to the female stereo port and the adapter stereo-rca.
