AUXmod input..this unit plugs directly into a port on the stock RX8 radio, and has a 3.5 line input. No firmware update needed. Anything plugged in (ipod,dvd player,etc), goes directly through the stereo system by pressing the Tape/Md button. Make sure you have a Tape/MP button on your stock radio..most do. Works great, and hard to find anymore because the company has been sold out for awhile. SOLD

I'm slightly confused by the Auxmod. It looks like it plugs into the back of the head unit, but the aux port is right on the device itself? How do you connect to the aux port?

Or does it not plug into the back of the head unit? You state "plugs directly into a port on the stock RX8 radio", so where is this port?

theres an empty cavity behind the plastic panel (wing looking thing)in the middle of the stock radio..in this cavity on the radio theres a port, that this board plugs into. You run a plug from the aux input on the board, which you stick in this cavity, down behind the dash and to whatever you want (ipod in center console, dvd player, etc). Simple 5-10 minute install.
Heres a pic, this is the stock radio without the faceplate (and upside down)

Gotcha, so remove faceplate, plug under the radio (do I need to remove the radio? or can I leave it in place and feel this in?), and it's connected.

So I will need an aux cable in addition to this unit, correct?

if i remember right you can attach it by taking off that plastic wing cover on the radio, i think theres enough space to get your fingers in there and plug it in. Pretty simple.. yea if your using an ipod or something you just need a basic 3.5 to 3.5 line (headphone jack size)..the same thing you would use if you were connecting an ipod to any other aux input. Theyre a couple bucks at best buy or any store..

hey jindesu when you get the auxmod you should see if you could get a shop or someone to duplicate it and make a bunch. could make a bit of money and do a nice service to the community cuz it seems like a good little easy way to get an aux input

http://www.sylfex.com/products/AuxMod/

a little company called sylfex, about 70 shipped I believe which is a great deal... theres not much about it on the forum, but i initally found a link through a thread somewhere on here....i doubt someone would copy this, besides there being copyright infringement issues it seems pretty complex.

I'd need a pretty good suggestion on WHERE to find this lol... I wouldn't want to bring it to the local asian tech shops and watch them melt it..

but brakes got a good point about the copyright.

ah i dont think you'd run into copyright problems if theyre out of business/not around. if you found a someone who didnt have problems replicating it, i'd do it
