You can but it will end being a Mono i/p, another trick is to interrupt the CD Changer Audio Line  i/p and o/p's.

No, you need to interrupt the Audio line through a switch / Relays and add some Caps and resistors, not too sure what you have in your Elite, did one a few years back on a NCDC HU but never been inside a 2006.

Been posted a few times on here, will try and find one.

If you are not running BOSE, then a better bet would be a Parrot car kit with full audio interrupt as they often have an MP3 socket and a better amp than the CCR2006

If you are asking that Q, I'd suggest you don't try.

Cassette adapter or FM adapter is best option for now, IMHO

Bear in mind I am not myself an Omega owner, can`t stand them, and on this occasion will not charge you a surcharge for owning one.

Always happy to discuss discounts though - how many do you want?

Missed a trick there Dave, considering the Traffic Master is Mono, He needs one for each Channel.  ;D
