Um, I think the best & easiest you can do is if your head unit supports something like AUX or something, get a stereo jack -> rca adaptor and hook it up that way to the AUX in on the head unit. Only thing is you have to control the song, etc via your mp3 player.

Unless you have an ipod, then you can get a head unit that has ipod support.

Hope that helped.

stock Bose head unit no aux input, notl ooking to change the head unit either

I know yours is a 95, but check out the "compatability" notes at the bottom http://www.discountcarstereo.c...D=610

Also, there was a Maxima guy that built one and would sell them. He was unwilling to provide a diagram of "how to", but since he's not offering them for sale anymore, he might.

Try a few google searches for - (Nissan, infiniti) Bose Aux in

i have searched all of these products and none for my system i do not know if i have the 12 pin but i would assume not

In the trunk, where the CD changer would plug in (assuming you don't have one) is the plug, I think it's a 16 pin connector, but 2 each on the ends are not used.

It may be worth swapping in a newer Bose with in dash CD, that these adapters are designed for??

I go on a stretch ever now and again to make this work. I feel like I'm about to again ...

rexi have a full reconditioned changer from sony in the trunk which i still useDoes 16 minus 4 = 12 ??

I'm going to be out of town for a few days, but will do some mroe research on this. I "think" a newer Inf/Nis Bose in Dash CD player can run your CD changer and with the right switching device allow you to use both the changer and AuxIn.

[jamesmost]

good thinking please let me know, i would gladly swap out head unit and buw the $100 switch.what about my idea of splicing a switch on the cd changer harness

[Rex]

I think it really depends on your skills and being able to get ahold of the wiring specs??

[jamesmost]

my skills are adequate - wireing diagram may be in the fsm -time is another question -is it the same dimensions as the '95 ?I realy want the esay fix though
