there may be a changer plug on the back and that can be adapter to an aux input unless its like a base model, otherwise your options are a hardwired fm modulator or new radio

This is what I went with on my older JVC and it sounds great FWIW.

Sorry my friend...no input or any way to do an input on that unit. It only has 2 preamp outs and no changer controls so there is no way to hookup any external add ons with the exception of an amplifier or 2. The unit you have does however play MP3's/WMA recorded on a CD-R/RW according to MSN shopping...but I just read a conflicting review on another site. Have you tried playing a disc with MP3's burned on to it?? I guess that's the only way to know for sure. But as for an external MP3 player or iPod...no way to hook it up to that player using inputs. You can use an FM modualator to hookit up but the sound quality will not be as good. That's about your only option.

radios are cheap enough where u can swap it out with a new one for clsoe to nothing. Panasonic plugs have not changed for a few years, you can reuse all ur parts and just pay for the radio at any CC or BB and have it installed for free.

I think ur stereo was around 120$ brand new anyways........ u can sell yours and buy another.
