Anyone know where I can get a temporary Ipod adapter for my car? Like a simple fm transmitter that can work through the stereo? I'm going on a short trip this weekend, and I'd like to listen to my Ipod so I need a short solution to hold me over until I get a Denisson and ACM.

 

Radio shack, wal-mart, target, local mall kiosk..any of those places carry it...

 

You're talking about the Ipod fm transmitter, correct?

 

yeah..usually called an "itrip"

 

Is the itrip a good substitute? Any other FM transmitters out there that can drown out other radio frequencies when they come in contact?

 

I just tried out an iTrip and it was truly awful. I am taking it back tonight. I'm looking to just pop for the OEM iPod integration unit. Don't really want to spend that much money, but I figure in the long run it is money well spent.

 

So the itrip was bad? There was another member on here who I pm'd who bougth a NanoFM transmitter and they claimed it was decent. Hopefully they chime in soon, because im hitting the road early tomorrow afternoon.

 

Yeah. No good for me. It worked very well when I initially tried it while in my garage. Going to and from work it was really bad. It would be good for a minute or two and then be nothing but static. I work in an urban environment and commute from the suburbs, but if you're in a more rural area away from a big city, I am guessing it may work better than it did for me.

 

i use an itrip, its not that bad at all imo

 

I got one of those FM transmitter jobs the other night. Sucked big time and I just returned it. I am using the Aux input right now. It's much better but i have wires all over the place and it's hard to search for songs, albums etc. I think I'll save up for the iPod OEM kit. I just can't bring myself to spend 500 bucks for it
