Details:

This simple and affordable high-quality auxiliary input adapter is suitable for connecting any portable music device to the CD changer port of your factory fitted stereo, enabling the music from your MP3 player, iPod, Sat Nav, DAB radio or any audio source to be played through your car audio system. With an expansion port you can add an optional Bluetooth dongle to get hands free calling and wireless music streaming.

This seamless integration into your factory stereo system gives fantastic sound quality as it is directly connected as opposed to the typically poor sound quality associated with FM modulators or systems that have their own amplifier.

  • Direct connection for your MP3 player / Sat Nav / DAB / Phone or any audio source into the car stereo.
  • Can be upgraded to Bluetooth with the Bluetooth Dongle.
  • Audio cable with 3.5mm jack.

  • Simple DIY plug-n-play installation in many cases.
  • Firmware upgradeable, universal interface fits many car makes and could be transferable to your next car!
  • 14 day money back guarantee & 1 year manufactures warranty.

Step 1 - remove the factory head unit (see FAQ's or video clips for further help)

Step 2 - connect the Data Cable (Vehicle Specific Cable) into the typically empty CD changer port on the rear of the unit. 

Step 3 - plug the other end of the data cable into the Grom interface which is small enough to leave behind the stereo or ideally route into the glove box.

Step 4 - connect your chosen accessory cables and route to your preferred location around the drivers seat.

Step 5 - Install head unit and enjoy!

  • No fuss, easy DIY plug-and-play installation
  • No wiring needs to be cut or soldered.

  • 0.5m Data cable (vehicle specific cable)

Each Grom kit comes with one Vehicle Specific Cable (Data cable) for connection between the Grom interface and the typically spare CDC port on the rear of the head unit. Generally Honda's require the MBUS cable for older models and the HON1M cable for recent models. If close to the cutover year it is advisable to double check. HON92 cable is for all 1992-98 models with round din connections.

Q: I’m not sure if my car is compatible ?
A: The compatibility list shows the vehicles this particular kit is compatible with. For full vehicle listings please download our full compatibility pdf which details all vehicle models.
If you believe your car is compatible but its not on the list, then view our harness guide pdf to see if you have the correct connector on the rear of your head unit.
Finally if you are still unsure then please email us your vehicle make, year and stereo details and we'll let you know.

Q: Will my factory fitted CD changer still function ?
A: Any multi CD/changer built into the head unit will continue to work, an external CD changer will usually be replaced by this kit. Note: Your stereo should be CD changer compatible.

Q: My car does not have a CD changer, will this kit work ?
A: Yes, the Grom kit imitates a factory installed CD changer and if your car is on the compatibility list then a specific port should be present on the OEM head unit.

Q: What connectors does the aux-in interface have ?
A: There are three connectors, a 20 pin vehicle specific cable for connection to the car and two mini-din ports, one used for the included aux-in cable and a second for the Bluetooth dongle (purchased separately).

Q: I'm unsure if I can install this myself ?
A: Installing a Grom Audio kit is a very easy task, once the head unit is removed, simply connect the factory matched connector to the port on the rear of the head unit, then route the cables and interface to your preferred vehicle location such as glove box/centre console/arm rest then install the head unit and enjoy! Full instructions are provided excluding head unit removal. Some head units depending on your vehicle may be more of a challenge to remove, however we suggest searching for your vehicle and head unit removal on YouTube, you can't beat watching a video of the process! If you are not technically minded then any local tradesman or friend with a basic understanding of electronics/automotive engineering could help.

Q: Can I control my MP3 player using this kit ?
A:
No, this kit allows you to inject a sound source into the car audio system, if you have an iPod, iPhone, Android phone or USB memory and would like to control them via the radio panel or steering wheel buttons then please see our other kits. The optional Bluetooth dongle will allow control of the Bluetooth device via the radio/steering wheel controls.

Q: Head unit v boot mounting ?
A: Some cars have the option of mounting the kit in the boot/trunk where a factory CD changer connector is located. Installation is easy this way as there is no stereo to remove, however your Grom device will remain in the boot. We can supply an extension cable should you require, allowing you to use your iPod/iPhone/MP3 player in the front of the vehicle - see our store for more details .
