Skoda Symphony Aux Input

[PropWarp]

Afternoon Gents,

Right I know there are kits out there for owners to plug in music devices such as iPhones etc etc.

The kits have a 3.5 jack which you plug into the phone but I am looking for something slightly different but the same thing (bare with me)............

I want to plug into an Aux input and not have a jack wobbling around the glovebox or anywhere else in the car.

In short I want one of them. I dont mind drilling a small hole so it looks OEMish

Thanks....

(im sure you would like this too, I know it) ha

Maplins sell them. I did this on my MK 2.

[PropWarp]

How do you wire it into a Mk1??

I have a CD autochanger in the boot and I would imagine that this would be phased out if the Aux input is installed.

Thanks

Good question.................. There is bound to be some of cable you can get that can plug into the stuff that is already on eBay & Amazon..

I just want a clean looking Aux-input instead of a dangly ugly wire.

[dubDEAN]

yeah lloks good but i'm crap lol i pod would get left on seat safer in glove box

Check in the back of the stereo and see if there's an Aux input. Usually a small diagram printed on the stereo. I'm not familiar with those but the MK2 Stream unit has a spare Aux Right,Left & Earth connector. You can then solder these to a Maplins Female 3.5 jack and mount on dash.

What about this, Seems like it could do the job assuming the back of the radio allows me to grrrrrrrr

There are no outputs on the back of the symphony stereo, you'll need something like this

It replaces the CD changer

[PropWarp]

I think I have cracked it............ Its a big maybe...

The above link I sent is for the Female Aux in... I get the below box for then by the looks of it all I have to do is swap the male 3.5 to the Female 3.5 (link above).... take a look and you will see what I am babling on about... It could work...

Dension do/did an iPod dock. Got one fitted inside my glovebox connects to CD charger input on back of stereo.

That'll do it, where are you going to hide it

[PropWarp]

Well it looks a very similar size to the the cigarette lighter so I may cannibalize that or I may do a little poking around the cabin to see where is best.

[Harvey1978]

Sounds good, you'll have to stick some pics up when it's done

[PropWarp]

I shall .........

Thread worthwhile I think................ Beer needed

[dubDEAN]

No, that's for a Ctek battery charger.
