Is there an adapter that can hook an MP3 player to a car stereo WITHOUT a cassette, and how much is it?

Question

I'm not looking to buy a new stereo, don't have a cassette deck in the car. I don't understand how there can't be one for a CD player; searched eBay and a few other places and there's only cassette deck adapters; help?

I found the best thing since sliced bread...http://www.crutchfield.com/S-9oDEWuNVIo6/cgi-bin/prodview.asp?i=142FMMOD01

It's not wireless so there's no interference. Not to be confused with an FM transmitter. Basically it adds an AUX input to ANY radio. No searching for a clean channel.

It feeds your audio signal from a headphone jack ( or RCA cables) by FM modulation, directly into the antenna input on your radio bypassing the antenna when on, allowing the radio to work as normal when off. It comes with an On/Off switch.


This is the answer. Totally versatile.

Answer 2

if you have the auxilliary jack in the stereo, they cable is about $6, or you can get the adapters that plug into your cigarette lighter and you tune to a static radio station. The cigarette lighter adapters are made to match the brand of MP3 player, they range from $10 to $50,. Search MP3 car adapters.

Answer 3

There is no such adapter to plug into the CD player slot. but most aftermarket stereos have an extra input on the back for just such a purpose such as a CD changer or Mp3. If you don't have that, you will have to upgrade your system. If you do have that input, all you need is a very inexpensive cable or adapter for less than $20.

Answer 4

get an fm transmitter for your mp3 then you just turn your radio to the same channel number they very in price alot but start at around 10 bucks

Answer 5

The iSimple IS77 is iPod specific. I'd get the IS32. It's more universal.
