Do you think getting an auxiliary port installed in my car would be expensive ?

My 2006 Toyota Avalon doesn't have an auxiliary port and I was wondering if it were possible to get one installed in it, rather than having to use an FM transmitter or other last-resort options. Does anyone know if that would be too expensive, and if anyone knows how expensive do you expect such an operation to be? I know these are all rather shady details but if anyone has a clue about this stuff or knows a thing or two about cars I'd greatly appreciate the advice.

Cheap headunit + 2$ wire. Some of them even has ipod input so you can control off the unit.

just replace the head unit, the deck itself should be around 70, the wiring harness and dash kit should be around 40 and you'd be set

This is what I bought because I want to keep my factory HU

It will work with just this, but if you want a factory look you'll have to do a little bit more. Otherwise, you just run the aux cable through a side panel, cupholder, e-brake slot, etc. This also allows you to still use steering wheel controls if you have them.
