Question now: Does anybody how to spoof the radio into believing there is a CD changer connected?
If you do some searching I think you will find a company that makes a devices that emulates a CD changer so that you can get inputs.
This is probably not the answer you want but after looking over all those ways to fool the factory system, I just pulled it and put in an aftermarket unit that takes all kinds of inputs (XM, Sirius, Bluetooth, RCA, iPod, CD Changer etc.) for about what the emulator cost. It was the best choice for me, but then I didn't have the Nav system built in.
