    XLT 2020 202a - Audio Mod/Upgrade to my liking

    As the title says. Dont know when car manufacturers decided that audio AUX input port isnt needed in recent car models, since the car owners aren't really looking for clear fidelity listening pleasure by plugging in their iPod/HiRes Player/Mobile - and will remain content and happy with near...
