Subject: aux input hook-up Author: medic1 : member since June, 2008 : 650 posts Posted on: 2009-07-31 00:48:14

About a year or two ago I performed a full nav retrofit to my 98 750 that was not previously equipped with one. I have the BM53 radio, a wide screen monitor, DSP amplifier, CDC (PI type), and the harness was a full original oem harness from scuba steve. What I'd like to do now is add an aux input. I have 3 questions.
1. Is it possible to do this?
2. If so what is the part number that I order and from whom (cheapest?)
3. Where does it hook it up? In the trunk? or behind the wide screen?

If you would have asked me a year ago to describe the wiring of the system I could have drawn it on a piece of paper blindfolded while rambling on about the importance of unloader relays and the importance of changing antenna amplifiers to the X5 units (which I never did do, so my radio reception kinda sucks). But now all of this is a distant memory. So I need the help of the learned gurus on this board. I wait with baited breath for any assistance you can render. Many thanks!
