Not much... it's very easy. Pull out the head unit, plug the GM9-AUX adapter into the CD changer port (9-pin port with a black connector in it), plug in a patch cable to the RCA jacks on the adapter, and re-install the head unit.
Depending on what you're trying to connect through auxiliary input, you will need a patch cable with the correct plugs to make the connection. The most common use is for an MP3 player or satellite radio which requires a cable with a 3.5mm (1/8") stereo headset plug on one end and a pair of RCA plugs on the other end. These cables are available almost everywhere - Radio Shack, WalMart, etc.
