I want to listen to my ipod nano without the fm transmitter but don't have an aux outlet..what can i use?

Question

i have a cigarette lighter - can that be plugged into something that will play nicely?

Answer 1

Get an FM modulator.  That is a hard wired plug in that will sound better then a FM transmitter.

http://www.crutchfield.com has them.

Good Luck!!!

Answer 2

I found the best thing since sliced bread...http://www.crutchfield.com/S-9oDEWuNVIo6...

It's not wireless so there's no interference. Not to be confused with an FM transmitter. Basically it adds an AUX input to ANY radio. No searching for a clean channel.

It feeds your audio signal from a headphone jack ( or RCA cables) by FM modulation, directly into the antenna input on your radio bypassing the antenna when on, allowing the radio to work as normal when off. It comes with an On/Off switch.

This is the answer. Totally versatile.

Answer 3

I haven't heard of anything that can plug into a cigarette lighter...  If you have a CD player or tape deck in the car you can get an adapter.  I'm not quite sure how the CD adapter works, but the tape adapter just looks like a tape with a cord coming out of it that would go into the head phone jack of your ipod and then the songs come out of the speakers without the fuzziness that FM transmitters usually produce.

The tape adapters I've seen usually run about ten dollars and while I can remember seeing CD adapters (so they do exist), I can't remember their price.  

Hope this helps.
