Not a bad idea, I have an ipod interface that goes in the CD changer slot and it works OK.
I do see two problems with this though..
1. Audio level at CD port is line level (like what comes out of IPOD earphone jack) The moto audio out is meant to drive an 8 ohm speaker directly, so it needs to be padded down.
2. I'm not sure if the CD changer communication bus (entertainment bus is different than class 2 bus) supports auto switching. Meaning that when a call comes in, you might have to hit the source button on the radio in order to hear any audio if you are not already in CD changer mode.
Maybe STS2003 can add more info regarding this idea.
Also, for others who have been PM'ing me, I do not have enough posts yet to reply. Please email me at
