How to Connect USB-SD and AUX-IN on an Alfa Romeo 147

Model: Alfa Romeo 147 MK 1 - Years 2000-2010
Part: Checks and maintenance

Learn how to install an SD card reader, as well as USB and AUX-IN - you can find this same device on Amazon for £64.00 - on an Alfa Romeo 147. You will need to remove the original stereo using removal keys (they cost £1.30 each on eBay), which make it very easy to take out. Disconnect the top connector, and replace the blue part of the connector with the blue one from the device you purchased. Pull the reader through the other side, so the cable remains inside and the device comes out in the glove compartment. Refit the radio and the job is done.
