2008 dashboard removal

Can anyone tell me or direct me to a guide on how to remove the dashboard on my 2008 lancer? I want to look at the back of my stock radio and figure if I can run some kind of aux line to my mp3 player. I really don't want to start unscrewing and pulling things apart blindly...

Thanks

Sometimes it's just the best way I'd be happy to do it for you but I'm too far away

There is an AUX line. Its not an RCA however, its a pin type. Somebody already did it. Its a $50 cable from Mitsu.
Press and hold your CD button, its how AUX in the display.

Go look in the 08's how to section under Ipod cable ( someone correct me)
Too lazy to find the link for you.
Search.

Dashboard removal- no clue. Guy who did it had the dealership install.

Hes right about the cable, its $54 from mitsu and its a pin-type that hooks into the back of the unit. Thing is, the other end is the same miniplug type that hooks into your headphone jack of the iPod. I just said screw it and went to radioshack and bought an RCA/Mini cable for $4 and used the front AUX jack. Mitsu says there is no iPod cable for the new Lancer

The $50 dollar cable is for those who dont have the Front aux in yet. If you have the front ones, get RCA jacks from Radio Shack.
