General Audio Question

[SMusser]

I just bought a 2006 Buick LaCrosse and it has the premium sound and all that. I am not looking to put in an aftermarket stereo in, but I was wondering if there is anyway to play songs off of my MP3 player or cell phone through my car stereo speakers. I know a little about FM transmitters, and I'm thinking this is my only option. My question for you is, what is the easiest and/or cheapest way for me to do this without replacing the stock stereo?

Anyone?

FM transmitters work fairly easily, but you get what you pay for. I've seen them anywhere from like $5-$75, the extremely cheap ones are pretty awful. I'm sure the top dollar ones are better, but for that money you could spend a little more and get a new HU, with an aux or ibus input.

I have a decent fm transmitter lying around, I think it was about $40 new, it only works with iPod. I have no need for it anymore, make an offer if you want it. I can get pics for you tomorrow.

If you have a cassette player (some newer cars still do) then you can buy one of the cassette adapters that goes into a 1/8th plug.
