How To: Installing Mitsubishi Aux/MP3 cable
I really want to do this when I get my GTS in 2 weeks!
You said the connector was only $50 to buy? Where? I asked the dealer today how much it would be and he said over $400 with installation, and like $250 without installation. I was like, 'wtf, mate?'
And then he started giving me crap that if I install it myself I'm going to put my warranty at risk.
I guess my question is, with this installation, how likely is it to make a big mistake like that?
Dealers....such scammers.

What color are the wires? What features/factory options does your Lancer have?
BTW, while I'm at the radio, is there a direct connection for the tweeter speakers on the head unit?
Nice write up, If i had an 08 this would be a great resource.
-But on the flip side...
Boo,mitsu would go with the double din (or atleast thats what it looks like to me) - For the radio.
Just purchase an aftermarket deck and buy a $5.00 hookup. (Very easy, But unfortunatly mine is like cutting out... *lol*)

Going back to what ChokingChicken was saying... has anyone tried installing this adaptor on a GTS model without sun and sound and found wires already in the 18-pin connector where the new wires are supposed to go?
Mr.Chicken, did you end up fixing this problem?

I did the wires were there allready, THEY look to just go to another point behind the cuby hole under the dash that since the SS in not installed just plugs into nothing at all. I have some pics i'll post them once i get them off the camera.
AUX Cable number
what is the parts # on that AUX cable? cause it says there is a AUX cable and the Ipod Cable. I don't have an Ipod just some MP3 player and i was wondering if it makes a difference which one i buy. is it the MZ360136EX or MZ360224EX?
The cable I have installed in my Lancer is part #MZ360136EX. This cable will allow you to use an iPod or any other mp3 device. I have my cable hooked up to my Zune device in my car.
I think the part #MZ360224EX is for the same exact cable, but not 100% positive. When I search this part number, I get the same results as the other number.

just installed this bought it off ebay for 49 shipped from a Mitsubishi dealership in San Bernardino CA. Install took about 25 minutes and it sounds great, I now wish I didnt pay 65 for my stupid FM transmitter which works good but not as good as this. Great write up.
