I'm New, 2 Questions: Aux In and Panic Button

Hi I'm new to these forums. I'm no stranger to forums themselves as I visit a couple others, but I'm new to these. I found this site via a quick Google and it seems like you guys have the answers I want. Now here are my questions: 1) I have an 06 LE Gold Auto w\ 119,000 miles or so (I bought it used in June '08) and I love my car! The bass from the stock system is sufficient for my needs and it is just the stock setup. While searching, I fail to find anything conclusive about an Aux In port for my Zune to hook up to. I was wondering if there was a cheap way to do that. All the searching I've come across suggests an iPod hookup to a 6 cd changer port somewhere. So where is it? 2) I hit the panic button on my alarm too much. No, I didn't bother to search for this one so if it's an easy searcher just say search for it and I'll find the answer myself. It's nice to unlock the car from a distance but too easy to hear "HONK! HONK!" Any suggestions?

Haha that's the obvious solution. Does it prevent the other keys from pushing against it?

I don't understand about the Zune part, do you want to hear the songs through your car stereo? Get an FM transmitter is one option if you don't have the AUX jack.

About the panic button, I would just be a little more careful with it, or you can take the remote apart and take out the button.

One of the cars at my church went off last Sunday, and we all jumped off our seats to take a look at the parking lot.. Turns out it was my dad's car. Well, we have like 3 silver cams in there, so... they all look the same ya know...

Ok. I tried one FM transmitter but the sound quality is crap. If there is a decent one what would you recommend for cheap and good quality?

I just want to hook my MP3 player up to my stereo somehow.

If your stereo doesn't have AUX jack and FM is crappy, then there is no other method, you have to get a new Head Unit ...or... go with TEE TEE EMM SEVEN SEVEN's method, burn to CD.

It'll still make static noise sometimes, and the sound quality will not be as clear as the AUX.

Does the stock 06 unit do MP3 cds? I don't think it does. And no I don't have the tape deck or I would. Any good cheap head unit recommendations?
