The AUX-GM3 works in vehicles with hideaway XM module (U2K) but connect to the back of AM/FM radio.
GM owners looking for ways to connect and play portable audio devices on car system will be pleased to find our AUX-GM3 AUX input cable. For the AUX-GM3 to work, your 2003-12 GM vehicle must have at least one external player (not built-into radio) such as XM module (U2K), multi-disc remote changer* or RSE (DVD). (Note: DVD, multi-disc changer, XM (U2K) are NOT built-into the AM/FM radio but separate modules in remote locations).
To install this cable, simply remove AM/FM radio from dashboard, connect 12-pin plug to radio's 12-pin socket, route and secure 1/8" (headphone) jack on or near the dashboard. To listen to remote changer or XM (if subscribed) or RSE (DVD), simply unplug audio cable from jack-- its that simple--- no complicated setup or wiring. With the AUX-GM3, GM owners are able to connect and play portable audio devices on the car stereo system while retaining fully functioning factory option.
