Aux for 07 JBL Headunit

[dai_lo]

I've searched the forums and have yet to find a definitive answer to this. I have read the thread about swapping an 05 JBL for an 06 JBL. I have ordered an 07 JBL to replace my 05.

I want to know how to get the factory aux working? I have yet to find any documentation of this. Is it possible? It's one of the reasons I'm getting the 07 JBL. Can you just purchase the aux cable? I'd prefer not to go with an aftermarket adapter.

Also, is installing satellite radio easy with this newer headunit? Is it just purchasing the sat radio components and plugging them into the unit?

Thanks.

To get the AUX working, you will need the adapter to plug into the back of the HU and out to a 3.5mm female AUX plug.

You will then be able to use a 3.5mm male to male cable (available at any Radio Shack) to plug in a satellite receiver or an iPod/MP3 player.

If you are looking for factory satellite radio, it's a matter of purchasing the satellite tuner, installing it somewhere in the vehicle and running the antenna to the exterior. Factory satellite units bought separately are pretty expensive and time consuming to install.

Thanks for the info. Any chance you have the part number for the aux adapter?

Thanks. I know about aftermarket adapters, but since I'm getting an 07 JBL headunit, I know it comes with a factory aux in. I was wondering how to get that cable for the unit.
