MY07 Standard Kenwood HU Aux In cable

by **almunro** » Sun Mar 22, 2009 4:27 pm

what is the cable type or part number i require to add Aux In to my 07 liberty? I know you can get subaru to do it, but i dont mind doing it myself with the rest of my install.

any info is appreciated.

They have some in stock at Suttons Subaru Chullora
just quote "auxialliary cable for 2007 liberty" over the counter
i think i paid bout 200bux, takes about 25 mins to install yourself.

maybe im just being a tight wad here, but 200 for a cable to connect a ipod, thats a rip. surely there is a generic brand/version or one could be made up with stuff from jaycar etc? what kind of plug is it that fits the back?

are you after a 3.5mm to 3.5mm aux cable?
if so, dicksmith should have em for cheap
or some $2 stores!

no not a 3.5 to 3.5, i have one already. i mean the one to suit the liberty's headunit.

Alex,

Have a read at the following post

http://forum.liberty.asn.au/viewtopic.php?t=4428

and maybe send sk00t3r a message about the part number.

Hope this helps.

ive read that post before thanks. i know there is a subaru part that i can go to a dealer and get an aux in adaptor that plugs into the back so i can then use a 3.5mm jack to plug my ipod into. i know this. what i wanted to find out but it seems like know one can/has made up a adapter cable that is the same as the subaru one only cheaper than the $113-200 that people have paid for them.

i take it that its not really worth the effort so i will most likely get one from suabru or wait and get a double din fascia kit and replace the stereo with something decent that hjas dvd/cd/usb/ipod already.

thanks again

Crikey it was only $140 extra, fitted, when I bought the car. Are they really charging $200 without fitting?!

not sure, havent checked. ive seen two different costs from guys on here. $133 plus fitting and 200 not fitted also. ill ring a few dealers and find out.

well if ur in sydney, go to subaru in liverpool on hume hwy.. they supplied and fitted mine for $140

my mistake
it was only $120, not $200.
...it was the liverpool hume hwy dealer that quoted me
$200 + a converter they had to ORDER in (did not specify cost at time)
...PLUS installation (some ridiculous figure as you could imagine...)

just buy the cable and DIY, like i said it takes 25 mins
8 mins to carefully open the dash and take the HU out
1 min to plug it in (yes its PnP),
about 8 mins to run the cable to your console
and 8 mins to put your dash back together again and wipe the fingerprints off
