How to install an AUX cable in a VW Polo (2008)?

We're two complete noobs at cars and AUX cables, but we have a 2008 VW Polo which has a cd player but no AUX port to listen to music from an external device (like our iPhones). We have bought a AUX kit off the internet but after plugging it in it didn't work. The car had an existing iPod connector

(the blue plug in this picture (out of its' socket) image)

but this didn't seem to work, so we replaced it with the AUX kit off the internet. But this didn't work either, then re-reading the instructions we found out that we were meant to be replacing the cd plug, however, this plug doesn't seem to come out, and also doesn't seem to match the plug from AUX kit.

The ports on the back of the CD player look like this:

Do you know where we have to plug in the kit? (which looks like this: image)

Any help would be much appreciated! We don't really understand what to do and the instructions are pretty vague, thanks for you help!

The harness you are trying to remove has a lever arch on it, see here: image It doesn't need to be touched so try not to force anything from it.

This is where your CD emulator socket will plug in: image It is below the 10 amp fuse. Carefully match the pins and insert. Push gently until securely in place.

Sit back and enjoy the music:-)

  • Why won't my AUX cable work in my car after iOS 6 update? Ever since I updated my iPhone 4S to iOS 6, I have been unable to play music in my car (Kia Soul) with the AUX cable. I know of people who have experienced this same problem too. Anybody know what happened and how I can fix it? Much appreciated.
  • RAV4 cruiser 2008 AUX issue? I have just purchased a RAV4 2008 cruiser. I want to connect my iphone to the AUX. In the past i have used my AUX cable in every other car but this one doesn't fit. It says in the manuel to insert a 3.5mm mini jack and that is what i have but it really doesn't fit it is much shorter but same width.
  • My nissan 2008 does not have an aux input? So I recently received my dad's 2008 Nissan versa. I looked everywhere in the car and can't find the aux input or any kind of plug in spot where I could plug my iphone in for music. Maybe there's some spot that I missed? If anyone knows? It does have a lighter socket type thing so wondering if that could somehow work?
