    Can this be done? I want to keep the stock USB/AUX jack that's located just under the AC/Heater controls on the dash in place and operational but would like to split the USB behind the Head unit and run a USB to the glove-box to hide my IPod. Has anyone done this? Can you tell me what the back of the stock USB/AUX plug looks like and can a USB splitter plug into it?
    Does anyone have pictures of what the back of the USB jack looks like?

    You could run a USA Spec PA-15 to the glovebox leaving your stock USB / Aux jack free

    The easiest way is to "y" the wires, granted only one would be usable at a time. I suppose if you plugged something into both the headunit won't recognise either, at worst it would blow up
