Default Finally did my Aux install

Had a PAC unit but the SOB went out on my a few weeks after I got it. Waste of $90. So a few $$ from radio shack and about an hour later I have a working AUX input.








Here is the writeup I got this from:

The wire is 22ga so it's kinda small, just a very close up macro shot. The pins on that jack are tiny and the 22ga just barely fits thru the holes on it. The audio quality is as good as the music you've got and it retains the XM radio if you're paying for it. Plug in your MP3 player and you got your music, unplug it and you've got your XM back.

Tomarrow weather permitting I will attempt to build a fiberglass stelth box for the drivers rear quarter. We'll see how that goes with my first fiberglass attempt.
