Here is mine on wiring up an aux input to the stock stereo. Similar to PureDrifter's. Different in the aspect as to that this is straight to the point and the Cd player will not work.

My own take on the Tape Deck Hack/Auxiliary Input DIY. This allows for the retention of all the factory stereo features, with the added benefit of an auxiliary input to allow playback of ipods, mp3 players, phones, etc.

Auxiliary Input

Here's something to try. Worked for me. Still need to do my window trim. It isn't specific to window trim, but you should get a good idea.
