Aux/MP3

The 3.5mm pin broke inside of my aux port. Acura and audio stores want to charge me to take this out...any suggestions or DIY on how to take apart the center console to take this out?

Ouch! Have you tried searching in the 3g Garage?

Get a small screwdriver or some sort of thin metal rod. Put a dot of superglue on the end of it, and hold it against the broken pin. Once it dries, just pull gently and the pin should come off. If that doesn't work, upgrade to JB weld. Be very careful not to get either the glue or the JB on the actual jack or anywhere else in the center console. Might be a good idea to tape it off with painters tape before you do this.
