[Gmecm] entertainment and comfort bus?

[js]

I don't have any info on the gm bus but here are a few things on the ipod's
comm protocols I found while trying to do the same with my aftermarket head
unit.  Hope it helps.

Well that would be easier...  But not nearly as cool.  I'm not sure just
connecting something to the audio in would work, there may need to be some
handshake between the components before the audio is used.
Currently, with nothing connected, pushing the AUX button has no effect.
Simple enough to try, though.  There's no tape player so I can't use that
adapter.
