subie94 Posted July 21, 2013 Share Posted July 21, 2013 Is it even possible to replace with aftermarket radio ? considering the surrounding panel is also used for HVAC controls..I just wish i could listen to all the music that's on my MP3 in my new Scoob.. If not,guess i'll have to burn a few CDs then.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cougar Posted July 21, 2013 Share Posted July 21, 2013 Why don't you use a FM transmitter for your MP3 player to work with the radio? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShawnW Posted July 21, 2013 Share Posted July 21, 2013 I found the kit on Crutchfield before. I haven't used it yet but I have seen a few that had it done and it turned out ok. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikaleda Posted July 22, 2013 Share Posted July 22, 2013 nipper has a thread on this subject, there is a mod that will give you room to put a radio in without trashing your hvac controls. it does involve cutting the circuit board and doing some fine soldering Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nickb21 Posted July 22, 2013 Share Posted July 22, 2013 (edited) I have seen replacement surrounds that let you mount DIN radios, they look fine. If you go FM transmitter, consider using an in-line type. More time to install but better sound quality. You could also look for someone selling a newer OE radio, they added an aux in maybe in 07? Lastly, I thought someone had made an adapter that would plug into the SAT or changer input or something to give you an AUX in without hacking wires/etc..

nickb21 Posted July 22, 2013 Share Posted July 22, 2013 Ah: http://ae64.com/Legacy_Gen4_HU_Transplant.htm Well that's annoying that you can't "easily" add an AUX to 05-06 cars. Hope the info helps, good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
