Radio Aux. Line

Would like to hook up an aux. line input to my radio so I can use an MP-3 player thru the speaker system. Don't want to damage the dash trim , not sure how to get the face panel off to remove the radio so I can get to the back of it.
Can someone explain how to do this?

Don't have it yet but it is available from Peripheral.com . Item is CHYX - Aux. input adapter for Dodge.

i thought there was only 4 screws holding the radio in, that you take a flathead screwdriver, wrap it in the some cloth so it doesnt scratch and pry up the bezal. Or at least thats what i thought i read

That's good info Old Hat, I've been wanting to do this for a while. But, I really don't like the CHYX. To big, and I don't need all that, just the AUX jack. Does any one know of an alternative to the CHYX.

Just called the parts guy at my local dealership, and Tallked to him about adding a jack. He said he had a couple of single disk stereos with the AUX jack out of new trucks that people took out to upgrade. He told me to bring my six disk without the jack, and trade me straight across. Give it a try Rrloren. May be cheaper than CHYX.

I believe there are two screws down by the cup holder, other than that probably half dozen clips, just work around the edge pulling straight out.
