DIY Facelift BL/BP AUX install

[ADIKT]

This is for all facelift BL/BP legacy and outbacks with a Kenwood stereo (2006-2009)

Here is a small guide to install an AUX

If you have this stereo: with an AUX button which seems to do nothing

Then you will most likely have no AUX socket in your centre console

You will need to purchase these cables: (does not have to be from these suppliers)

Once you have collected all the pieces you will need to pull the stereo out - it is rather simple, follow this thread for good pics on how to remove: Note: I didn't need remove the whole centre console

Once you have the stereo removed - you need to run the wires from the stereo to the centre box - I unfortunately can't find a pic of where the adapter plugs in on the back of the stereo - but there is only one socket it will fit into anyway

When the wires have been run - you will then need to drill a hole the correct size for the AUX port

Here is the AUX port installed in my centre box

And working AUX on my stereo

Mine works mint and has good sound!

I have something very similar, dont have the cable right the way through to the cubby though. Works fantastically
