My friend owns a 2006 Pruis standard model. On page 306 of his owners manual there is the following statment "An aux adapter is installed in the rear console box. By inserting a mini plug into the aux adapter, you can listen to music from a portable audio device through the vehicle's speaker system." The only electrical outlet in the rear console box is a standard 12Volt "lighter" fitting. Is the aux fitting refered to part of an upgrade or is it omitted on North American models? Any info would be appreciated.

When the system detects a signal on this input, the input is activated in the string of inputs when press the CD button, or, I believe the mode button on the steering wheel.

Still ... it'd be nice to have. If anyone has info on how to mod in my own aux ports without having to resort to an FM transmitter I'd be ever so happy.
