Default Factory entertainment system

I recently removed the factory radio from my '03 (am/fm/single CD) because I couldn't connect a Sirius radio to it. Now that I've replaced it with an aftermarket radio, I don't like it because the clock is almost invisible on it, my steering wheel controls don't work, and the backlighting is the wrong colour and doesn't dim! Looking at my old radio, I see a 'CDC' button on the front, which makes me think it must be capable of accepting audio input from a remote changer in the trunk IF one had been fitted. Does anyone know it this is the case and, if so, which pins on the back of the unit are 'audio in'?

No pins. Its a optical network cable.

Sorry

There is a longer answer. Read all three of these:

Adding Accessories (aux in, iPod/iPhone, Bluetooth) to the Jaguar X-Type, S-Type and 2004-2009 XJ

Jaguar Audio Connectivity Module (ACM) Installation and Tips

Adding a Motorola T605 Bluetooth Adapter

What you should take away from these is that if I can add Bluetooth, then you can add satellite audio. But it's going to cost you!
