I made up an aux harness tonight. I made it with an rca sound board, some connectors to hook to the positive and negative on the back of the sound board and simply wired the left and right from the sound board into the harness. Connected the two negs together and connected to the neg wire on the harness, connected positive right to the positive right in the harness and same for the left. Made a simple jumper for pin # 5&6. Drilled a couple of holes in the cubby hole and glues the sound board to the back of the console. Now all I have to do is use a headphone to RCA cable and plug it into whatever multimedia device I want to use.
My car is an 06 DX-G (canadian model).
My next task is to take apart the console and figure out which wire is positive in the antenna wire from the plug that is in the console instead of possibly ruining my wire by splicing in at the rear of the car as my wires for the antenna are both black, neither have an distinguishable markings to tell me which is which.
