fair enough.not necessarily sure if you can. i know you can get adaptors for some cars to go from a 6-CD changer to an aux in with 3.25mm jack (pug 206 for ex) but a changer was never an option for k11s.....
im not sure if you'll find any input on a micra radio unit other than the aerial input.

in a tape player the tiny magnetic differences in the tape cause tiny voltage changes in a coil inside the tape read head. these voltages come out the back (usually 4 pins, two left two right) and then get passed into an amplifier circuit that boosts the voltages high enough that they can move speaker cones. its a very simple system that is entirely analog.
if you wanted an Aux in, you could wire straight to the back of the read head or where the wires from the read head go to.
in those tape adapters they use a read head just like the one in the player with tiny coils in it. the low voltage audio from an MP3 player for example, causes the coils to become magnetic, which is passed to the read head in the tape player. this is similar to how a tape can be recorded by reversing how a tape player works.

Like what Nex said, but with generic pictures...

Intake n exhaust almost done, suspension next :)
If you're not keen on soldering, but dead set on keeping the stock head unit, another option is getting a wired FM modulator that basically pipes an aux source into the antenna socket via a piggyback antenna connector. No FM transmission loss, and usually no interference, although you might need a ground isolator if you get alternator buzz or whatever...
