Aux input stock stereo
 

Ok a quick search didn't help much so I'm looking for a final clarification.

From what I've heard radios from 05 up are different connector wise.

I want what the 07-08s have, the aux 3.5mm input.

So the questions:

Are the connectors different?
if not, can I throw an 08 ranger radio in my truck and the 3.5mm input?

If they are different, am I SOL? I'm not using it with an ipod so the ipod adapters are out, I'm using it with my phone that has a 3.5mm out.

my 07 has the cd6 6 disk changer in it, there is a 20 pin plug on the back, which goes directly to the aux in, it only uses 5 of the pins, and i have no idea what 5 pins it is, that it uses... or what they connect to on the plug, as it's only a 3 conductor plug...

a lot of information on our radios can be found on this page, which i found looking for something else
2004 F250 Stereo Upgrade

interesting. i wish i knew someone who had a newer ranger with the aux in. i'd love to look how it is all wired in,

This has got my interest as well.. I'd love to have an aux in on my factory unit...

I wouldn't mind getting a newer factory unit just to have the mp3 in. I hate the look of aftermarket stereos.
