    Ipod in car

    Anybody know the best way to connect your ipod to the car stereo ? Are the Dension Ice>Links any good ?

    I got one of those little FM transmitters off ebay, you just tune in on your radio, sound was surprisingly good. The chinese-english via babelfish instructions are worth the purchase price alone

          A sony one CAX 900 or sum thing? But the misses has a pioneer one that cost £200 in the 80 sport that conects direct to the ipod and you can control the ipod. ie change play lists tracks, artis.

                  Assuming its a CD player without an aux in - the FM transmitter is the only option..... they sell them in Argos now so I don't see the legal issue as much to concern yourself with.

                  If its tape (in the van?) you can get tape converter things in Maplin and even Tesco for about £4.

                  If its got aux in....... well, you wouldn't be asking!

                  PS Hows life? Hope all is going well chap! nice to see you still kicking about on the forum!

                    I know plenty of people who use FM transmitters and constantly complain about the lack of quality.

                    Seems there are good ones, and real bad ones. Try before you buy if you can.
