My Sirius Satellite Radio died a few weeks ago and instead of dropping more $ on a new one, I decided to just use my mobile phone instead. The problem is that my 2004 Cadillac CTS does NOT have an AUX Line in to support it. So, after some research, I found something that will let me add one!
In this video, I'm just building the circuit and testing it. I'll need to find a better time to install it in my car (that will be a another video sometime in the future).
Here's the video from Dronix69 that I found that started it all:

Much thanks to forum members Dronix and pyromosh for doing the legwork!!
