How can I use USB/Aux cable in my Pioneer DEH-P4850MP?

Done everything, even enabled the AUX mode. But, hell no! The connectors were too big and not even a single pin could be connected. Now where do I get those micro connectors?

what connectors did you use? from a dead cabinet?

Yo man! Did it! Actually, I again had to take out some smaller connectors from my printer (which was dusting around as I bought a new one last month) and then I further stripped them slimmer and what I got was a very snug fit. Then, I enabled AUX mode and fired a song on my mobile. And VOILA! It played! There was no static disturbance (seriously, none at all!). I teased my sister who was bugging me I wouldnt be able to pull it off. Man! What a feeling! All the days hard work paid off! And yeah-

COST- Rs.50 only.

@abhipuru, please read the manual of your HU - it will be a great help in understanding how your HU works. Selection of Aux-in does not appear in the menu, it is a Source Selection. Read up your manual how one should do that.

In the cable that you have prepared, the L- and R- are the green and yellow wires that you have soldered. The L+ and R+ are the blue and red wires - you need to strip the insulation to access the copper wire inside those. I think the red one is the R+, and the blue L+.

Edit: Saw your post a bit too late. Congratulations! Good show - enjoy!!!
