stock radio, ipod access

[Huascar82]

I have the stock radio still on my car 02 ES, has CD player, no tape deck, but does not play MP3s, is there any way of being able to hook up my mp3 player, without the need of buying a whole new radio system? I think the previous owner was able to hook something up into the multibay are where the tape deck should go, which I could ask him but he's in Korea. But yeah any ideas will be appreciated.

not that i know off, there isn't an input for it

you could probably do some really freacky wiring and get it to work, but i don't know of such a way

Damn, yeah I dont wanna do any rewiring myself. What about a new radio that has an input jack for an mp3 player? Could I get some suggestions on what would be a good one thats not overtly expensive. maybe 200 or less.
Again thanks for the help.

this might help you.

That looks pretty nice mazdaholic, kinda expensive for the basic one, although I might actually have bought it, to bad its out of stock, hopefully they'll have the production version of the advanced one and cheaper then the basic. I'll prolly buy on once they start producing them.
Thanx for the link.

Look at the Sylfex site referenced above. It's pretty much a plug in, as is the Audio Link from IL Motorsports (click on the British flag to translate to English and look in the "NB" section).
