I tried to play an MP3 cd in there and it didn't work. Is there any fix I can do or a factory 6 disc in dash CD player that I can buy to wire up that play's mp3's without losing the controlability of the steering wheel controls? Thanks! Great site you have!

You can't do anything with the factory radio to get it to play mp3's on disc. I believe there is an aftermarket option if you get an aftermarket stereo that is remote capable. I think the interface that works with the steering wheel buttons sends a remote signal to the new radio. At least that's what I've read in the past, but maybe something new has come around that I haven't heard about.

Thanks for the help. Maybe I will just buy a cheap Ipod off of the internet and run it through the aux part of the system. I have a 2005 Chevy Suburban Z71 that has the DVD player with the aux RCA input. I know they make cables for that. I just don't want to spend the $200 for the kit to use it through the factory stereo and use the steering wheel controls. It is a lot of money for convenience, IMHO. I don't have a lot of money right now, I am paying for the burb!
