But basically you NEED to have that aux button give you a "no aux audio" message or something like that. If it does nothing, which I think some do, you can not do it.
All it was, was an adapterthat plugged into the back of the stereo, and makes that "aux" button active. The other side of the part is 2 female RCA cables, left/right. I went to radio shack, and got a female headphone input jack(make sure its stereo not mono) that outputted to 2 male RCA cables as well. Plugged those into the female RCAs on the adapter, and you have an ipod input. I drilled a hole around where the cig lighter was, put a rubber grommet around the headphone jack, and fed it thru the dash. Looked factory. I bet you could just get a newer 04-08 body style dash tray. They already have the aux input.

If you do I may be able to help. Have to find the adapter I got for it
