I have 2004 G35 sedan with the factory installed AM/FM radio with multi-disc head unit. I was hoping someone knew if there is an auxillary audio input on the rear of the head unit that I can connect my iPOD to in order to play it through the speakers. The front panel of the stereo has an "AUX" button, so I'm assuming there is some sort of input jack on the rear I can connect to. Can someone tell me if such a jack exists?

Your car is prewired for satellite radio. There is a factory kit out there that will plug into the satellite radio input.

Thanks. I found the satellite kit, but it was over a hundred dollars. I ended up buying an FM modulator/switch and an iPOD-to-RCA adapter both for under $60. I will be installing it tomorrow and plan on using the SAT switch as opposed to the supplied toggle switch. I will be routing the iPOD connector up through the center console pocket (above stereo). Should work out pretty well.

i should point out the reason it's so expensive is that it allows you to control your iPod through the buttons on your dash and steering wheel

Soundgate makes some good adapters
