AUX-GM2
QUICK START INSTALLATION GUIDE FOR SELECT 1995-05 GM WITH MULTI-DISC CD CHANGER
Created November 19, 2015
Revised May 3, 2020

Introduction:
If your 1995-05 GM has a working multi-disc remote CD changer (See Fig. 1),
but no input for Smartphone, iPod, Tablet etc. the AUX-GM2 is for you! The AUX-
GM2 provides an input jack without having to buy a new radio. The input jack can
be used to connect and play portable audio devices (e.g. Smartphone, iPod, MP3
etc.) while retaining the rest of the system. Keep in mind the AUX-GM2 works
only in vehicles with a functioning 12-disc changer** usually installed in
armrest, glove box, trunk or hatch (See Fig. 1) If vehicle does not have a multi
disc-Changer, purchase our PXDXGM2 or PXDXGM4 (Corvette) aux adapters or
BLU-C5 Bluetooth adapter. Please verity changer operation prior to
ordering. GM FM modulated multi-disc changes (e.g. model 1624298), Alpine or
other than factory changer are not compatible.
See Frequently Asked question at the end of this guide.

or sander to thin panel). Mounting the jack is not required
for operation but doing so makes for a stock appearance
