How can I install an auxillary cable to my car radio?

Question

I need it to play my mp3 player in the car. The brand of the radio is Pioneer. It is a front loading CD player.

Answer 1

that depends if your radio even has an auxiliary link... most that do have a small jack somewhere on the front, a few have only a connector at the backside, or a wire on the main wire trunk.

you will have to see the technical documentation of your device to see it is has an auxiliary line at all, and if so, where.

if not, i am afraid you are out of luck. there used to be adapters for a cassette drives, but that abviously wont work with a CD slot...

if you are keen on keeping the radio anyway, you can either buy a car amplifier to hook the MP3player and the radio to, or an active speaker system for the MP3 alone. both ways are certainly more expensive than a new radio though. modern radios play MP3 directly from CD, or even have memory card slots. AND most likely an auxiliary line.

go for it :)

Answer 2

Get a converter that transmits your MP3 signal onto an FM radio channel which can be picked up by your car radio. See link below.
