MP3 plug?

i have an 06 xlt and was wondering if there was anything out there that can make an mp3 player work with the factory cd player. i would rather not use the ones that use radio signals, not sure if there is anything that can work with the factory radio, or if i could get the mp3 for option to go in without making any changes?

Search around for a P.I.E. FRD04-AUX. It ties into the semi-proprietary CAN bus connector on the back of the stock deck (used for the rear seat entertainment center found in the Excursions), and it will provide you with left & right RCA input jacks.

With a good MP3 rip, it is hard to differ between your MP3 player & the actual source CD.

A hard wired FM modulator is cheap and works well.
