I tried this the other night and it worked so I thought I would mention it to all of you in case you didn't know. You can use a 1/8 to RCA connector and plug it into your headphone jack and then plug it into the rear entertainment console in the AUX plugs and listen to your ipod by selecting AUX on the radio. It's not the best setup since you can adjust the volume off of the actual IPOD. The sound quality is night and day better than a FM modulator though.

I did this for a while and then switched to the Neucleus, it keeps the Ipod charged, and I download everything at 320, switching back and forth you could not tell the difference, of course if you are using 120-180 speed to download you will hear the difference, it's night and day |

| | Cadillac Owners Member Cadillac(s): 07 Escalade EXT | | | | | Re: Factory IPOD hookup in Escalades. Hey guys, going back to NBOMAR's original post, where is this "aux" input on the rear console? The console in my EXT only has what appear to be 2 outputs for headsets (I could be wrong), nothing labels "aux" or "input". Sorry if this is obvious to everyone but me  |
