    Bascially I have an mp3 player and I would like to set it up so that it goes straight through the radio and not through the antenna. Anyone does this before? I know theres a mod out there for it which I am considering.

    There's a little 'mod board' that sells for $30-40 on some Subaru website. It plugs into a header inside the radio and you get the aux input, but have to run a 'silent' CD on repeat while using it.

    All he was going to say is buy an 07 OEM unit, they have the aux input from the factory.

    Thats bloody expensive. Besides isn't it only the STI limited?

    I've been trying to figure out what they changed to do so. Sadly you can't buy the little aux input box to fit where the cig lighter is now(don't need it, only holding change at the moment). I'm wondering if the whole radio is actually new or just updated to accept aux.

    I did indeed do mine at the last install day. The board only works on some cars so check that before you get it. http://www.jazzyengineering.com/ This was far cheaper than an 07 radio.

    It can be installed in about an hour if you know how to take apart the dash. You will want a table and some little cups for all the screws too :) It could be a little louder at times, but that might just be my ipod.
