Advice - Keep RCD 500 and add aux in or get new

Post by Nollyjeff »

Hello - advice needed here...

I am very happy with the sound output of the RCD 500 with its built-in cd changer

I would, though, like the ability to play audiobooks or music from an ipod or android phone

Therefore - I need to ask, is it easy to add an aux in adapter to the RCD 500? Can an absolute eejit and numpty (me) do it?

I looked in the overall manual and it mentioned a 3.5mm socket in the glovebox but I couldn't find that.

I have read on these forums that, if that is the way I go, pressing CD twice in succession will access the aux in facility


If it is very numpty-proof, is a replacement Double DIN unit preferable? I don't necessarily need the CD changer if I have aux in.


Have I made sense?


I have confused myself

PS - if you use terminology or abbreviations, please tell me what they mean :D
