If your deck has Aux inputs (rca type or otherwise) then just get a wire that adapts a headphone jack to rca. OR my brother used an FM transmitter and that was only like 20 or 30 dollars, plugs right into the ipod and just transmits an FM signal that you tune your stereo to. That's the cheapest/easiest way but not the best sound quality.

those fm transmitters suck, i would reccomend a cable connection by ive link or something like that, i found them on ebay. they use your cd changer controls to control the ipod so thats pretty cool. ill get the exact name of it in a bit and post it up.

there's a company called peripheral that has a direct connection for ipod to factory radios it runs bout a hundred buck new but very much worth the money for sound quality and ease of installation

I'm sick of my FM transmitter, but I seem to be running into a problem. All of the hard-wired adapters I have looked at say that they are NOT compatible with my in-dash 6 CD changer (factory). Anyone know of a system that will work with the 6-disc changer?

there is one fm transmitter worth noteing and that is the harman kardon drive + play its bout eighty bucks and with an extra wired fm transmitter it sounds really good. and it gives you control of the ipod with a controler not the actual ipod allowing you to lock it away safely in your glove box, or wherever you want

fm transmitters are tolerable if they are hardwired. otherwise, dont pay more that 20$ for it.
