I think it might be easier, cleaner, and cheaper to replace the CDR with a new head unit which has Bluetooth, AUX, MP3 player support already built in, you can find them for less than $200
You will loose the CD changer, but then again in the times of iPhones and MP3 players I think the last time I listened to a CD in my car was like 5 years ago ......

thanks, i though about that, but i'm still a little old school. i looked on the Cructchfield website and emailed them a note about this to see if they had a unit with bluetooth and CD changer control. waiting for an answer. I think i might have to come into the 21st century and opt for the IPOD solution.

Be careful on the CD changer hook up. I have been down this road and nothing but the OEM will run the changer. Maybe someone else has more info but I ended up switching tothe21st
