    Connecting Mp3 player connected to arial socket

    This is the back of my stereo:


    is there a way to connect a 3.5mm cable to my stereo using the aerial socket on the back of the stereo unit?

    so like, i can connect an mp3 player to where the aerial would normally go, and have a little box of some sort to switch between using the 2?

    like this...

    First you have to understand, this forum is dedicated to those hobbiest that wish to integrate a PC into their vehicle and in some cases we do not uses standard aftermarket equiptment to do so. If you wish to learn more about the subject, welcome to mp3car.com. Otherwise you may get a better and more timely answer by visiting a site dedicated to general car audio.

    As much as I would love to spoonfeed you, I don't have the time nor the patience to do the legwork for you. I'd suggest you do a for the information I gave you.

    http://www.lowcostcaraudio.co.uk/lcc...or/pid/7638614

    im just wondering on the whole connecting it to my car stereo as the aerial socket on my setereo unit is different to the 1's shown in the pictures for this product and any others i seem to able to find.

    will this product work and is there any others i could go for that you guys can recommend?

    thank you very much.
