Best Buy had a kit for auxilary connection and USB. I put it where my ash tray was. Works great

 

Here is a picture of the input

 

Did anyone successfully install the aux jack in their 2001 cl? Someone mentioned a kit they bought in best buy, what is it exactly? Is there a connector block in the back of the glove box?

 

just looked in my 2005 cl65 and no aux cable?

 

Nope.

Only 2003 cars had an aux jack

For the other year cars you need to use a cassette adapter , hardwire a cable into the cassette section, or use a $600 adapter like the Denison or mobridge

 

Could you just swap a 2003 radio in that has the aux feature?

 

How about these MMI cables or IBP cables? don't they plug into the socket where the diagnostic tool is plugged into? seems like an easy solution although depending on how you listen to the music the cassette is acceptable.

 

2003 uses CAN Bus fiber ring. 2004+ uses the MOST fiber ring.

They are not compatible.
