Easy.. just get an aux input cable from Ford (make sure you get the amplified version, bit pricier but a lot better). It plugs in under the fusebox near the bonnet release and runs under the tissue box holder. Gives you a 2.5mm (I think thats the size) aux input jack, and you can change your ICC to the aux channel to use it.

thanks, but was hoping to find a cheap way to do it, i've heard you can get a headphone input jack, solder on some wires and plug it into the back of the fusebox. i had a look at the back of the box and there are 3 connections back there. which is which?
