Jaime, I was thinking about sending my Becker in to Ed for just that - adding the aux input. Do you have his contact information these days?
I really liked the stock stereo in my 91 300E, so I may return this one to the original. I saw the amps and related goodies in the trunk when I was cleaning it the other day.
