Default ipod hook up

right now i am using the cassette adapter to hook up my ipod to the bose system, but the quality sucks. what would be to cheapest way to get my ipod hooked up with some high quality music coming out? i dont mind having to unplug my cd changer.

You can splice in a 3.5 mm jack into the line in for the cd changer in the rear of the trunk.

$4 cable
$7 cheap soldering kit

This charges and gives a clear signal...a bit expensive but unless you don't mind charging your ipod yourself or through an outlet

I had my ipod touch hooked directly to the factory amp. A 6ft 3.5 from the ipod to the amp has a 2 split and then those 2 split into 2 more so a total of 4 wires that connect to the line in on the amp. The ipod has a strong enough signal to get good sound. Ill take a pic and post.
