I've got an '05 ZX3 and I had the same issue. Has the button, but no input. If you're so inclined, you can install a device to convert from the propriety aux input on the back to a 3.5mm jack by plugging it in and splicing some power wires. Took me about an hour. Here's a link for the device. If you've got a CD holder box (in the dash below the light controls) there might be a cable there. It's where I installed mine to.
Double check, but this worked for my '05 Ranger when I wanted an AUX input:
Also, CB radios are relatively cheap and a lot of fun.
I also bought a camper shell right after I got my Ranger.
