iPod Aux?

It's quite strange. On my Civic I've got an AUX port where I can just stick it in. This is the cable I use:

http://www.amazon.com/Monster-iCable.../dp/B002AR5XIK

It's basically a 3.5mm jack that most if not all headphones use. The Evo X AUX ports are White and Red? kind of like the AV cables for a TV/Xbox? How can I plug my iPod into this? Is there some sort of 3.5mm Female to White/Red AV Male Cable?

Thanks.

You need a headphone to RCA cable. All male ends.

Yeah, I've got the USB but the biggest external I've got is a 1TB HDD and the smallest is a 8GB Flash drive. Don't want to drop money on a USB unless it's very fair.

Sounds good, will pick this up. Except I'll try to find a Male/Male RCA to Female 3.5mm so I can put my current AUX as an extension.

This will work?

So it will be like this:

RCA Male Red Into Evo X Red
RCA Male white Into Evo X White
Monster AUX Into Female AUX
Monster AUX Into iPod

=

Brutal Metal.

.
Do you have an ipod? That usb port can be used to plug in an ipod and it gives you decent support.

I bought the colored cables, they suck compared to the usb in the glovebox.

I re-read your post, do not go out and buy cables, immediately go to the car, put your ipod in the glovebox, plug it into the usb port and read your manual.

yeah, do what MR_Lover said! The RCA to 1/8 cable sucks --- sound quality just flat out blows, plus it doesn't charge your ipod and you have to change tracks via ipod - which is a pain in the ***
