As title, have been looking at the FM transmitter ones, but also read that the quality is poor also have to keep changing the frequency on long journeys ..

What do you guys and gals use?

 

Someone must use an ipod/iphone in their car?

 

are you looking to change your headunit or keep your existing one?

i just use a audio lead and go through the aux input

 

unless you have an Aux lead honey i dont think there is any other decent way!

 

Yeah, can change head unit, not a problem ..

So iphone headphone out to radio aux input is the best way then?

Thanks for the replies

 

I dont have an I phone, but use to have to have an 4th Gen Ipod. I bought myself a Kenwood KVT-707 monitor head unit, then bought the ipod adapter KCA-IP500. I could then control the ipod using the head unit. Im not sure if this is compatible with touch / Iphone, but im sure you can buy an alternative.

 

I have something called an iO Play.

It is wired in to the back of the stereo, and has a bluetooth module.

My Iphone then has a bluetooth adapter, and it streams music to the stereo, and is controlled via a small controller on the dash.

Kit has a microphone and doubles up as a handsfree kit:

Thanks for the replies, I think I'm going to do something like this

.. and use a line-out to kenwood multichanger connection for the back of the head unit.

Then just need to find a decent cradle, then I will have the sound and charging while on the go

 

Thats not a bad idea!

 

is there any car headunits available that can connect to your iphone and control it etc eg forward on headunit forwards the ipod song?

Sorted now

Got both cables needed (and one spare ) It wont display anything on the head unit, but as long as it plays the tunes through my 2 amps, and my parrot car kit will kick in for my hands free, its alllllll good
