Will there be a socket for this, so I can plug my Samsung phone?

Why don't you open it and find out? If that's some sort of proprietary Samsung connector there, I think it's pretty safe to assume no. Right?

LOL get your *** out there. I bet it takes about 5min to take that apart. I'm guessing that you're going to need some kind of adapter for that plug, which may or may not exist. Try plugging into the USB port?

In my car, that hole leads to the iPod integ kit, so the answer is most likely no.

yes the answer to that is no. do you know if the ipod kit is factory installed or dealer? If its dealer you may get lucky and they left the aux connector jack sitting there. If thats the case you reinstall it, remove ipod patch kit behind head unit and plug the aux back in.

you dont need to physically remove but one trim panel - the one on the right side edge of dash. it snaps off. has 2 plastic feet and 3 metal spring clips i believe. it just pops off. and by that i mean gently get some plastic wedges and pry at multiple spots. From there you'll be able to see the aux jack if they left it behind there.

and it'll just be the 3.5mm aux jack - nothing to charge phone or anything like that.
