for the best quality that is.i used to have one of those fm transmitter jobs and then tuned to its frequency but with my new car stereo being better quality i can notice the sound is actually quite poor.im no audio file but id like it to be decent.the car has a radio cassette head unit and 6 disc multichanger in the boot

I just changed my factory fitted headunit for one with usb out on it. Just easier than faffing about.

I now have an iPod living in my glovebox that is controlled via the head unit and no wires anywhere, as the unit i have has usb and aux cables out the back, so just fed them through the dash into the glovebox.

Got one of these:

Just look for the "made for iPod" on any unit and it should do everything you need

I got an adapter that plugged into the CD multichanger socket (no great loss as it was always jumping on rough roads)
