There are adapters sold by installer.com. There is no line input otherwise.

I checked installer.com and there is no AUX input adapter for 2003 Accord. The only item I saw that might be an improvement to a regular FM modulator is the inline FM modulator. Do you have the part number?

Upgrade XM Radio by roirat

I have 2005 Honda Accord Hybrid with XM (No NAV). I am a previous XMer - and had a SKYFi-2 add-on in my last vehicle. My only complaint with the car - is the outdated XM radio. I have checked with Crutchfield and they seem to think I have no Upgrade options. Has anyone tried this? I have heard the 2006 has a later generation radio - is there a way to get your hands on one as an upgrade option.
 
Does anyone know if this radio has an Aux input or Mute relay for a hands-free kit?

Revised posting of #8.
 
I installed Boston Acoustics S95 (6 X 9 inch) speakers in the rear deck and Boston Acoustics S65RC (6 1/2 inch) speakers in the front doors in Sep 05. They both are 35watt RMS speakers.
  
They sound really good with the OEM stereo, yet are capable of supporting a 4 channel amp if I choose to add on at a later date. (I am hesitant at this time due to concerns with the ANC system) The Boston Acoustics website refers to the door speakers S65RC as being designed for Hondas, though crutchfield does not recommend the S65RC for the front doors. The crutchfield adapter for the front door does allow you to fit the 6.5 inch speakers behind the front door panel. (Only modification was drilling 6 holes for the speaker adapter brackets) The front door panel after the installation does stick out a little at the inner bottom, but allows you to close the door without a problem. I look forward to "turning up the tunes" on my daily commute on Monday.
  
Purchased both speaker sets from www.crutchfield.com. Their sales and tech support people are excellent and I highly recommend them. They are not the cheapest on the web, but they are the best to deal with for after sales support and returns. The Crutchfield directions are easy to follow...just make sure that the door cable is inserted back into the handle pull or you will not be able to exit the front of the car without using the outside handle.
  
The original Honda OEM speakers are cheaply made. The speaker magnets are a little bigger than a US Quarter. The front speakers are made of a blue plastic cone and the back speakers appear to be some type of polypropelene material.
  
Good Luck with any upgrades!

I have the iPod link installed. The dealer installs it and there is a connector in the glove box. You then plug your iPod into the connector and switch to the cd player and you're good to go. There is some software that "announces" each song but I tried it and (a) it was lousy and (b) I couldn't really figure out how to work it. But that software has nothing to do with the sound quality - which is as good as a cd.
