Great feedback and info Ronin. Let me know if you need help with the relay pack. You can use a double relay system, or a audio relay switch. If you're planning on making it easy, a rocker switch, from "A" to "B", would be the obvious choice. If you simply want two jacks, no rocker, we'll have to find a extremely low amp relay, or rather 2 of them.... something I've been looking for since the original install. Lol. The relay would have to click at less than .1 volts in order for an ipod/mp3 player to trigger it.
Nice post! This sounds like the correct way of doing it. I personally would not do the other way just cause of the MONO status. The 5 pin connector, you mount that onto the radio? Or mount it in the dash or center consol somewhere accessible?
Sorry Rukee, I think I might have missed your question or at least misunderstood it. If you are asking about the 5-pin connector I was refering to in order to be able to disconnect the H/U, then it would be a 5-pin Molex connector. Now I say 5-pin because that would be optimum but, for some reason, I can't seem to find a 5-pin Molex. They are either 4-pin or 6-pin but the diagram that I attached clearly shows a 5-pin connector.
At any rate, it would be run inline, probably only 4-6 inches from the H/U. My solution for this little problem would be to run the 4 wires into a 4-pin Molex and then run the ground into a 1 pin. You would still be able to disconnect everything but you would have to do so with 2 connectors instead of 1. I hope that makes sense and aswers your question.
Paul

If radioshack is failing you, try a local electronics parts, aviation, or even Fry's.
I've tried everywhere, even online electronics stores. I know they have to exist since it clearly shows the 5-pin connector in the diagrams. I just can't, for the life of me, find one.
