to hook the audio i first tried the schorche modulator it worked perfect ,then i was pulling the unit out to clean up some wires and popped some wires out of the unit accidentally, so thought i would try using the cd player audio inputs and it worked for free

Cool, that is actually the "tape drive" connector, but good to know it works.

Details please? Where did you solder in the leads to the CD Player PCB? I'm assuming you mean the in dash CD player, not the CD Changer in the trunk? This could be the answer for all of us that are tired of our FM Modulator setup!

Hey Dennis, like others looking for a ACM alternative. Whats the process of using a MP3 player using the the CD player Aux inputs and how do you find the sound quality. And like anindyam is asking what are the exact solder points you used on the cd player pcb. Thanks for sharing your work.

This appears to be the pinouts Dennis is referring to.

Hi Dennis, I've tried to weld on radioCD main board but it doesn't work. I have weld on Left Channel, right channel & ground welding points.

I think too that it is the tape drive connecting points.
Can you confirm this for me?

Thank you.
