Any compatibility with NC, or did the wiring harness change?
I put together an Aux input for the factory MSSS Stereo in the 93LE and it worked great. Since I was already paying for shipping, I got enough stuff for 2 cars. It cost me about $30 shipped for everything, so I will sell my spare set for $15. Will work with all NA Miata factory stereos.
This is what you get:
Male 13 pin DIN plug
Female 13 pin DIN Plug (only needed for MSSS stereos)
1/8" normally closed headphone jack
3' of 5 conductor shielded cable
Instructions ( I also have additional instructions needed for the MSSS stereos)
Any compatibility with NC, or did the wiring harness change?

Sorry. I couldn't help myself when I saw the author of those instructions. I bet he gets that alot. Now if only someone could point me to a how-to on a '97 MPSS (Pioneer) Aux jack install.
Regards.
What does the back look like? Does it use 13 pin din connectors like the MSSS?
I'm interested what else is required to do to sset it up for a MSSS radio??
Do you lose the CD player with this setup (not that I ever play CD's).
I got a MSSS in the POSIV!
You end up making a Y harness that has a Male DIN plug, a female din plug, and a 1/8" headphone jack. You un-plug the Din plug shown unplugged below, plug your male DIN into the back of the stereo, your female plug into the plug that was originally plugged into the back of the stereo, and mount the headphone jack so you can plug your MP3 player into it.
The wiring is done as follows:
Nothing seems to be lost with this setup. Regardless of what input you are using (radio, CD, tape, etc), the un-amplified sound is sent out of the top half of the unit through this plug to the lower unit and then back to the upper unit before being amplified. You are putting a normally closed headphone jack into this circuit, so when nothing is plugged in, the circuit remains closed and the signal sound continues to loop as needed. When you plug your MP3 cable into it, the circuit is opened, stopping the loop and replacing it with the MP3 audio.
