I have a spare Sony CDX-MP50 on which I tried some home made hack (it has a BUS IN, so hoped I can push an AUX-IN through it, but the HU didn't know anything coming in through that because the control wire is not connected, so it didn't let me select the `changer' as a source at all); then I took that to a local installer (professional sound: near thippasandra (bangalore)) and asked him if he can bring out an AUX-IN. He tried but at the end of the day called me to say it is not possible. I gave him the idea of cutting AM tuner, even I said I wouldn't mind if we have to do the same for the CD (coz I wouldn't play a CD if it works out), but he is probably not expert enough to execute it. I read in net I can use Sony's XA-300 which will convert a BUS-IN to an AUX-IN. But no idea of availability/price in India. If it is $100, which is 3931/- I may as well buy the cheapest HU with an AUX-IN.
