AUX port - where?

Hi
Need some help again. I want to plug in a bluetooth receiver to the AUX port of the stereo.
I've been told it's in the glovebox - but for the life of me I can't find it!!! Where else could it be? Must be somewhere - the stereo list AUX as one of the sound input options.
Right now I'm using a Bluetooth/FM transmitter to play Spotify songs from my phone. Plugs into the cigarette lighter socket for power. Works ok enough but I would like to try the AUX input option.
Car is 2007 W211 E280 Elegance.

All good. I found it!!! It was on the upper bit of the glovebox.
Couldn't get my cheapie BT adapter to work though. But I can play music from the headphone port on my phone and Spotify.

Look into installing a Mr. 12Volt adapter. It replaces the CD changer and will handle your Bluetooth phone, both for audio as well as handsfree.

Blue tooth adapter

I bought and used this one as it fit the old Apple fitting in my glove box. Worked well but after disconnecting it for a while and plugging it back in I can't get it to work. The phone see it and pairs to it but I can't get any sound out of the car so I'm assuming it's the car not the device?

Sorry to hear it's not working. Bad connection perhaps?

I've purchased a portable Android Auto/Apple Carplay screen thingy from AliExpress. I will then plug in the output to the AUX port in the car.
