Im looking for any info on turning a VW beta radio from red lighting to green, and then somehow getting an ipod/mp3 player to play off of it.

After a little googling Ive found out that the color can be changed by changing the LEDs, but it doesnt show a break down of how to do it.

Id imagine it shouldnt be too much of an issue, but getting from that to it playing from a 3.5mm input is where im stumped.
Ill be doing it on a budget since it is more for something to play around with than the finished product.
It will be going in a mk2.
Any ideas welcome..

Don't think so, that was the one I needed for a mates mk4 and his radio is identical to the above. It plugs into the cd changer port on the back of them beta radios if I remember right.
