Default I got factory Navi but i want MP3. What do i do?

Tried searching and could not find anything. I want to keep my factory navi but i NEED mp3. Either by auxiliary port or a changer. I got a 98 gs400.

Is there a way to do this?

Cheapest Option - Aux input through the Tape Deck

Best Option - Aftermarket Head Unit

it is possible but I am hearing its very time consuming and kind of expensive. Its not plug and play like everyone would hope.

You would be better off getting an aftermarket navi.

for now your best options are the aux hack
or just having to play stuff through the tape deck
