Fiber Optic Loop

I want to remove the CD changer from my glove box but when I do the audio doesn't work any more. Is there something I can use or do to remove it but still keep the audio live?

Any Help is greatly appreciated.

You need to plug in a "fiber optic loop or ring in the place of that accessory.
