Description Crutchfield Hands-on Research
 

Got a portable music player? Then you probably know that a direct connection to your vehicle's radio will give you the best possible sound quality. The Precision Interface Electronics GM12-AUX adapter lets you convert the CD changer port on your General Motors factory stereo into an auxiliary input, suitable for connecting an add-on satellite radio tuner, portable music player, or other audio source.

Just plug the 12-pin data connector on the adapter cable into the factory radio's changer port, connect your portable player to the adapter's RCA inputs, press "CD" on the radio, and go. This adapter uses the CD changer port — once connected, you can't use a changer with your factory radio. Warranty: 90 days.

Please enter your vehicle information or call a Sales Advisor at 1-888-955-6000 to find out if this adapter is compatible with your vehicle.

Reviewer: Candace from texas  
very fast shipping and not to mention the free shipping was awesome. Pricy item just to
have an ipod hookup, works great, sounds great. As read in the other reviews it is not
seek up once then down to switch from xm to phone. It is seek up 3 times then once
down, I would have not known that If I had not read the reviews. Took a little while for it to
work. It did it right the first time, but then didnt want to do it anymore. But it works fine
now, It just seems like it's tricking the system and bypassing something in there for the
quick seek sequence

This interface works great!  110% better than the FM transmitter I was using.  Installation
was fairly simple.


 
Great instructions August 22, 2010
Reviewer: Wingnut from State College, PA  
This is my 2nd GM12-AUXV2.  The 1st one died after about 1.5 years.  The vehicle-
specific instructions that Crutchfield provides are fantastic.  They are vital for figuring out
where to pry on the trim pieces; you can break things if you don't know what you're
doing.  I had no problems installing either the 1st or 2nd adapter.  We have (2) vehicles
with this adapter; on one, it's been working for 3+ years; on the other, it died after 1.5
years (out of warranty, naturally).  Once installed, it worked great.  It's so much better
than the default FM transmitter way of getting XM into the factory radio; in our area, the FM
spectrum is really crowded, and it's difficult to find an unused station.  The direct method
is definitely the way to go.  I'd give this a 5 if the 1st one hadn't died.

this product is just what i have been looking for it sounds great and works flawlessly. reading the other reviews was a big help in finding the correct wire to tap into the large orange one. installation took less than an hour. i couldnt be happier with this product and delivery from crutchfield was very fast.


 
Sounds great May 22, 2010
Reviewer: Andy from Emmaus, PA  
I have a 2007 Trailblazer and the only think missing which always drove me crazy was an aux port.  Finished installing this earlier today and the sound is great,  compared to a wireless FM transmitter it's like night and day.  Thankfully, the days of constant searching for a clear FM station and static filled music are over!  I had an issue getting the power to work with mine the first time around, but solved my problem on the second try.  Besides the normal struggle getting the dashboard apart after I found all the hidden screws, the installation was pretty easy.

The reviews here helped a LOT, if it wasn't for so many people sharing their information I would have thought my adapter was broke.  Like others have mentioned in their review, I have to press seek up 3 times in a row, and then down once to get it to switch to my iPod, not once up and once down like the instructions state.  There is nothing on my display that states the new aux port is active either, it just shows up as XM.  If the instructions had been clearer and included this kind of information, they would have been much more helpful.  All in all though, looks and sounds like a great product.
