Multiple inputs: iPod, SAT, and CD changer
I have been frustrated by trying to find a way not to lose my 12cd changer when adding a SAT radio to my C5. Seems all the kits/adapters eat up the CD changer connection. Same when adding an iPod.
But as usual some deep searching on CF and I found a very creative post by MonteHall that may resolve the issue. All credit to MonteHall

even a wiring diagram

Now the reason I posted this is I was hoping that one of the many electrical wizards on CF could morph this excellent mod into supporting 3 different inputs on a three way switch ?
The CD changer, an iPod, and a SAT 
So, any ideas ????

This should be very easy, you basically are just doubling up the relays from the normal aux in / CD changer mod seen here:

I mocked up a quick jpg to show how the 2nd relay would get added in.
the pin hookups are the same as the 1st link, the only changes are getting a second relay and getting a 3 position switch. You may need to experiment with which side of the 1st relay gets the green vs the blue wire (you want the blue wire to be on the 'no power' side of the relay).

I had seen this, but haven't had a chance to do much research on it. http://mobile.jlaudio.com/products_c...php?page_id=93 Check it out and let me know if this is what you are looking for. I first heard about it, when I had one of my cars at JL Audio. Caught my interest.
