    CD-text or not, I can't imagine trying to sift through 30 gigs of MP3s on something like that.

    I have the kenwood X915 ... I'd love to get one of those pic controllers! I bought the aux adapter...i was thinking about taking hte adapter apart to find where the wires go...the problem is that it knew it was an aux adapter and not a changer. probably some kinda digital line for the cd text / track number.

    Has anyone got any idea at all on how to do this?

    Hey - did anyone in this thread ever get anywhere with this hacking? I started another thread with a similar topic, but I figured I'd post hear to wake people up. I'm doing something similar, but using a GM/Delphi head unit, and I haven't gone so far as to buy a cd changer to snoop yet.

    Anyone making any progress?
