the guy i bought my S from already had the "aux" wire coming out the back and comes out behind the passenger seat by the amp. i can lay it on my seat but it's not the longest wire.

do you guys know of a car charger that i can put the cable into to listen to the ipod, but just have it connected to the charger....a 2 in1 deal im guessing

That looks great for power but I'd stick with your existing jack to the AUX. The FM transmitter mentioned on the site (below) is *not* "high-quality" in my opinion.


You can use the Auto Kit with the specially designed Belkin Mobile Cassette Adapter or TuneCast Mobile FM Transmitter (not included) for high-quality audio through your car stereo.
I had one of these and it's *acceptable* quality for minor occasional use but not nearly as good as a hardwire connection.

Bigger is better...externally speaking of course.

If you have stock speakers maybe acceptable, but if you have a system forget it.

Debs has XM via RF modulation in her car, Sony decent HU and stock speakers...it sounds ok..NOT great but passable for your average listener.

True if you are listening to talk radio or in the car listening and talking to Adam or someone but for listening to music... not even on stock speakers.

I used it a lot for long drives and the top would be down so who gave a rats. Other times I'd use it on long drives in the WRX and listen to books on tape.. .fine for that.
