Forgive me for posting yet another question in so short a time, but I am so excited with my second C3 that I have been looking at all sorts of stuff on tinterweb.

I saw this video on YouTube today https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pqyeAEUzI5I

Is it really this easy to fit an aux audio-in connection?

Also, is there a kit available to fit a usb audio-in connection rather than the 3.5mm jack?

If so, would this provide charging to the attached device?

Hello again Deltech

How easy it is to fit extra inputs depends on what radio you have.

The one in the YouTube video looks to me to be newer than the one likely to be fitted in your car.

One giveaway is the Fakra connector, earlier cars have what look like ISO connectors (I say look like as they don't follow ISO standards for what wire does what).

As with all these things, it's always worth a quick look behind the radio to see what connections are available.
If at first you don't succeed, destroy all the evidence and pretend you never tried :lol:
