Head Unit finally ate a tape, Is there an oem solution with an AUX input?

Same here. I had the head unit out and could see just the perfect little cubby that looked like it was designed just for the Grom. But couldn't get it in there. Removed the climate control head and it slid right in. A PITA, to be sure, but was totally worth it.

Disco Mike had the link to what turns out to be GB 4x4 Radios in his signature but if you're not having any luck contacting them that's irrelevant. The AUX port they installed in the factory head unit looked original.
But why do you want a AUX port? Like others, I've had a GROM Bluetooth unit connected to my factory radio for years. Works great and I love it. Why not just go with Bluetooth?
As FND said, you pull the radio out of the dash and plug the GROM cable right in where a CD changer would have been connected. There's room below and to the right of the radio where I stuffed the GROM box. No cutting, no splicing.
The only thing even a little tricky once you remove the radio is routing the microphone cable to wherever you want to mount the mic for making phone calls. I ran it under the dash, behind the A-pillar trim and across the top of the windshield and mounted it on the windshield near the interior rear view mirror.
