Check out this thread... I've not been told otherwise but in my opinion the cleanest way (which also happens to be the most versitile) is to go with and aftermarket deck that has an auxilery input of some kind (i.e. CD changer port) buy the necessary adapter with RCA input (female end) jacks on the other end, get a 6' extention cord from Radio Shack (or whatever) with RCA output (male end) jacks on one end and a standard 3.5 mm headphone jack on the other. That way you can use any kind of external device (mp3 player, Satalite reciever) with it.
