i'm not sure- but i'm willing to guess it does not... if it did- i think it would be one of their selling points for the shaker system....

Kev,

I know that the Shaker 500 has an Aux button. Does Sirius make a system that could be plugged into that jack. Wouldn't want to be drilling holes in the dash of the new mustang.

Guess I could look at best buy.com or sirius.com

Sirius only needs the antenna added and the account activated. All Ford premium stereos have Sirius capeability from the factory, there are no visible add-ons needed. The aux button is for add-ons like DVD. Most likely it has a "ford" connector in the back, but someone will probably make adapters for acessories like MP3 players. I've tried to think what would be worthwhile to hook up to it but I cant think of anything. There should be a SAT button on the stereo, allong with the cd/fm buttons.

I can not remeber what thread it was, but that car had camo, and a piece was missing, showing the sonic blue that it is.
Grantsdale is right, it's a good chop though.

Kevin, Why make adaptors for an MP3 Player? The Shaker 500 & 1000 both have a 6 Disc In Dash CD/MP3 player.
This is just One of the things I am Excited about.

I recently got a Portable CD/MP3 Player to use in my 97 Thunderbird, Untill I can get my 05 Mustang. I had never used an MP3 player before, but when a Friend of mine Burned me 3, MP3 Discs, with over 255 songs on them Total, and alot of them were Extended Dance Mixes. I was Impressed!

So Imagine 6 Discs with aproximatly 85 songs a piece, that's about 510 songs or more, you'll have loaded. I think I could Drive A Long Time and not hear the same song twice with 500 Songs Loaded in my Stereo, and they'd all be Songs I Want to Hear!

Who Needs XM/Sirius with that kind of a Music Selection? Just Burn everything to MP3 Files and you could carry a few Extra CDs and have Thousands of Songs at your fingertips! Heck You could have your entire Music Collection on just a few Discs, Depending on the size of your collection.

I know, thats why I cant figure out whats worth hooking up to it. Only a DVD truly needs an AUX button.
