Question

Answer 1

I have something called iTrip, but it doesn't work very well. You can probably pick it up at Radio Shack for about $30.

Answer 2

You probably need the ipod radio transmitter. It's like 75 bucks. I don't know if you will like it though because the sound quality is not perfect. You could try taking your car to the dealer to have the input installed. As far as the red/yellow/white hookups, there might be an adapter but I'm not sure.

Answer 3

Some Dashboard CD Players have what they call an "Input In" on the face which looks like a headphone jack would fit into it

If you take a audio wire with two male headphone jack at the ends take one end for the ipod and one for the Cd player, there should be an options on your cd player to switch the input to the iPod.

If not, they have adapters that you can ut for around 25 dollars that tune your iPod to a certain radio station that you can access from your radio

Answer 4

hiya in case you go onto ebay you will get transmitters with chargers for like 15€, attempt to get one that suits immediately into the ipod ( on the backside) somewhat than one that is going into the ear telephone jack. I have been given one a on an identical time as back and it somewhat is phenomenal, use it each and all the time interior the motor vehicle. you will get a Griffin transmitter on ebay too for prob around 30€ yet those ones artwork purely tremendously much as good, shop around in any case!
