Adding an MP3 player to the stock head unit

A friend of mine drives a 1996 900. He wants to wire-up his mp3 player to the stock head unit using line-in rather than an FM modulator.
I have seen the option which utilizes the tape deck input leads here -

I was thinking it might be possible to tap into the CD changer L and R line-in leads and common ground in the wiring harness on the back of the head unit. Has anyone had any success doing this? The problem I anticipate is that when you try to switch to the CD changer to play the mp3, you will get a "CD changer not recognized" error. Does anyone know a work around for this?
Any other options for providing an Aux input to the stock head unit?
Any help is greatly appreciated! Thanks!
