There are illustrated plans on how to wire up an aux cable to the connections at the rear of the standard head unit. Will cost about $10 for the required materials, less if you have the appropriate cable already. Hardest bit is physically popping off the head unit trim. Otherwise you need little dexterity or electrical know-how.
i remember i refer to the guide in ausjazz to setup my aux input last time.
but ausjazz server is down at the moment
i make a few of those aux cable last time, i remembered i still have one left, left me flip through my boxes at home...
Very large pain in arse to make an AUX cable. Once you buy a double DIN fitment kit and get a normal headunit, you'll find the Jazz is actually quite good for audio. Just make sure you deaden the cr@p out of the front doors.
hey dude still needing a hand on aux port. i got mine done DIY. Just go dick smith and buy a female socket (the type designed to screw onto a flat plate) its 45 cents. if you noe much about desktop computers you should noe of the plugs which connect the hdd, on, light, power switch onto a computer. grab 3 of these plugs off any old comp (make sure they have wires running off the ends) go and solder the ends of the wires onto the plug. next you get a drill and drill a suitable hole into a desired mounting location. (for mine i put it just beneath the centre console, under the temp control. Mount the female audio socket and connect the 3 plugs onto the back panel of the cd player. If you live in Brisbane come by and i'll show you what i mean.
agree, stock head unit is quite good for SQ. i had dyn fronts and idq10 running and the front stage gave v nice sound. i never got a chance to fully deaden the doors. i'll consider that.Quote:

yea, especially with the ge which came out, the price of a gd just dropped significantly. I'm still looking to sell it though, you should buy it and have a jazz collection - red n blu ftw! :P i took the audio system out and is currently running nicely in my room. I might keep an eye out for a tru tech amp and give dyn 3 ways a try in a jazz. not ne time soon but maybe towards the end of the year.
nice to hear about that mate, what is your next car in your mind? Tru Tech + dyn 3 should be very impressive combo, i hope can see it soon.
can any link me to an illistrated DIY for the aux for a GD3, thanks.
o and also does any1 know bout the usb/aux input for the factory GD3 headunit that was floating round ebay while back, was a bolt in thing that went into the back of the factory headunit with out anycutting.
i'll take some pickies tomoro cbf right now, wow there is a bolt on version aux port. what a rip. lol ps. where would it bolt on though?, unless u have a wire going out to a female end.Quote:
