Default installed an aux input in my 98

So I finally got around to installing an aux input into my OE radio on my 98. I used a PIE input converter that plugs into the back of my Head unit. I ran the 3.5mm cable that connects to my mp3 player or sat. radio or whatever down into the "empty" heated seat button (since i have no heated seats it's just that little cover that clicks out, leaving an empty space behind it, next to the 4 way flashers) I am REALLY happy with this because it all tucks away nicely back into that heated seat void and the cover just snaps back on. I highly recommend this method if anyone is looking to install one. I can post pics if anyone would like to see them. My description is a tad confusing.

YA....I KNOW I SAID "IMPUT" .... LEAVE ME ALONE I'M TIRED

We'd definitely like to see the pics. Maybe you could put together a 'DIY thread' with the pics and a few words of instructions.
I'm sure many here would find that valuable, especially those with older NBs that don't have the ipod plug thingy.
BTW, I see you're in Ontario. If not too far from Toronto, how about coming to our next GTG? The more the merrier
