Best Buy has and adapter that ties into your factory antenna. Cannot find it online though. Cost around $29.00 USD.

It looks like this. http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp?skuId=7729899&st=antenna+adapter&type=product&id=1140392383550

daver6, I dont know how it is on the 01 xterras, but on some of the 02-03s, there was an 8 pin DIN connector which you could pretty easly wire to to make an AUX in. I did it on mine and it sounds fantastic.

jefbystereo, can u please give me further information on where to purchase the conversion to aux in and how to install it. I hav and '04 xterra with the stock head unit and do not want to upgrade my head unit just for the ipod. Thank You

welcome to the club..... good luck on the responce i dont think he gets on here anymore Last Activity: 12-11-2006 02:10 PM

but i think you can http://i66.photobucket.com/albums/h255/jsongrl/jason/google.gif it!!!!! maybe someone else has done it

is there an 8 pin connection on the back of the stock head unit? if so this should work http://www.discountcarstereo.com/detail.aspx?ID=1046. But i dont know how the aux would be accesed form the head unit and i gues it would have to be wired out of and a/c vent or else a hole would have to be drilled. Any help would be appreciated

i dont really know, i replaced my stock cd/tape player for a mp3 w/ipod jack..... why dont you just use the tape deck and a tape ( you know the ones with the wire and jack ) that would be the easiest i think

just buy reading the description and looking at the pics i dont think it will work......

I have a stock cd player (no tape/not 6-cd changer)

get a heaad unit with tape..... they are on ebay her is one http://cgi.ebay.com/98-99-NISSAN-ALTIMA-00-XTERRA-FRONTIER-RADIO-CD_W0QQitemZ120101463652QQcategoryZ38640QQssPageNa meZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

it is going for 99.00 but with no tape, i will sell mine for 75 +shipping..... if you want it..... i took it out end of feb 06 and it worked with no problems.....

im going to investigate the 8 pin conversion thing through and through and if that doesnt work ill buy an older head unit or possibly upgrade. thanks for the offer though

alright..... older unit ?????? what do you mean mine is a 00 , good luck on the conversion....

No 8-pin on the back of my head unit so the best solution is an fm modulator. Here is some good information on installing an purchasing one. http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20070329184041AAclWRk&pa=FYd1D2bwHTHwI79kFeIzRaxE.37faKgdtE9h4ru2NX659A--&paid=asked&msgr_status=

good luck and post some pics when done.....

i'm just gonna throw this out there... i've been using a modulator for quite awhile. it pretty much sucks.

i looked at them a while back and i didnt ike them.... but thats why i went with aftermarket ...... so like i said in the previous post good luck.......

i dont have a camera so i dont hav any pics but the installation went smoothly and it sounds like cd quality. The only thing i hav found is that i hav to turn my volume up but besides that it works great
