my buddy had a adapter that allowed the ipod to play thru anunused fm station wirelessly. I'm not too sure of the availablity formy car (nor yours since we dont know what you have)since I have not looked into it for myself butit could be a good place to start. The adaptrer was something that was offered by apple.

The easiest way is to get an RF adapter: plug it into the IPOD and tune your FM radio to its frequency. The audio quality is a bit lower, but most people won't notice. Radio Shack will set you up if you have trouble finding it.

Pay attention to whether it supports IPODs or just generic MP3 players, and also if it'll recharge it.

no she isnt out of her mind. You can get an adapter that plugs in through the cd changer jack. (this delivers the best audio quality). other than this there are fm transmitters that are universal and cassette decks. (either way u lose a bit of clarity but if you listen to cds alot than they might be the best for you)

Um i looked into this for a B6, the CD player comes with two outputs one for the indeck CD changer and one for the external CD/DVD changer. Once the other CD changer is pluged into the back the radio is enabled to have 2 CD changers (you can tap into this connection and connect your IPOD) your local dealer has this cable for sale and it is the OEM version for the IPOD. Here apperently my city is most expensive than most of the states it would cost me $220 I belive just for that cable + IPOD + install and I would do the install myself. Check how much it is at your local dealer for me and than I might buy one from them cuz here everything appears to be twice the price!
