Ok.

I just got my patriot yesterday. It has the 6 disk cd changer but no u-connect and no auxiliary jack for an MP3 player. All I want to do is add a normal phono-jack somewhere where I can plug in my ipod or my cell phone to and listen to music that way. Is there a way to do that with no Auxiliary input from the radio??

Your help is appreciated.

Sounds like you might have an aftermarket radio in there. Can you post a pic of your radio dash area?

Only way to do it easily, without an Auxiliary Jack, would be to get one of those FM transmitters for your iPod/Phone.

From Amazon:

NP. I have installed several of these for other people, they are a great inexpensive solution to keep the stock look.

yeap, is the stock unit, with 6 discs mp3 player. no aux input (like my boston acoustics system and Uconnect in my charger r/t).

in my pat, was only 1 disc and aux input, but I changed to sony unit and you connect the ipod inside the unit (as a CD!!) is more expensive buy the uconnect and ipod interface to mopar vs change the unit.
