Re: ipod hookup in car

I would probably go with a tape adapter if my car had a tape deck. I haven't had one of those in 10 years probably. I use a FM transmitter and it works pretty well with my mp3 player.

yeah, I got lucky when I got my 2001 Saturn SC1 used, it has both a CD and a cassette deck...I think most new cars nowadays have the AUX jack on the factory stereo, don't they?

I've used FM before and it's been good, but IMO tape deck is the less effort option (i had a non digital FM one, so i'd have to dial it in to get the clearest sound)

If you have an aftermarket head unit, or one with aux inputs on it, you can simply run an 1/8" to rca cable to hook your Ipod to the aux input. That is how mine is hooked up.

thats how my ipod is hooked up too.

I have one that plugs into the cigarette lighter as well... works like a charm.

I set mine up like that a few weeks ago and LOVE IT, it's infinitely better than having an FM Transmitter.

I have the Belkin FM Transmitter.

It's not that good when you use batteries, but ever since I started plugging it into the lighter it works pretty much perfectly.
