OEM 2006 Civic Aux options
Discussion
Hi,
I bought a 2006 Civic at the weekend and it has a Honda 6 disc multichanger in the armrest. I want to swap this for a 3.5mm aux in or maybe a USB in. It would seem that I can remove the cd changer lead and swap it for a 3.5mm in, is anyone able to confirm please? Swapping it seems to be a bit of a ballache with lots of the dash being removed, if it was a couple of screws I'd have a look myself but don't want to dismantle the dash if it's not possible.
Thank you

I fitted an iPod adaptor adaptor in mine way back - it used the CD changer port.
It looks pretty drastic but it's quite easy to remove trim and get the radio out. £7 for a set of trim tools on amazon makes it even easier to do without marking anything. https://www.civinfo.com/wiki/index.php/Info_-_gett...

Thank you, looking around it seems that some of the guides talk about soldering resistors etc but I think this is if there's no cd changer connected (which mine does), can you confirm at all?It looks pretty drastic but it's quite easy to remove trim and get the radio out. £7 for a set of trim tools on amazon makes it even easier to do without marking anything. https://www.civinfo.com/wiki/index.php/Info_-_gett...

There are very detailed guides online but yeah quite a bit of interior removal but it plugs right in the back of the Hu. I had my 3.5 coming out of the cubby hole under stereo. Down side is it had to stay open as I fed it through on top of it rather than drilling it.
With the effort involved I would seriously consider putting in a double din android unit at the same time which will be infinitely better overall.
