I don't have the money to buy a new radio or a kit for my car. Is there anything I could get to play my Ipod tunes? A radio adapter would be nice but I would need a good one which I have yet to find. The last one I had was awful.

Thanks for your time!

I'm pretty sure there are adapter kits at Best Buy you can buy but they are quite pricey that allow you to use your iPod with the factory head unit. Thats what sucks about 2005 and I think 2006, no audio jack!

I bought a headunit at Bestbuy..
it's a Sony media player...no CD player at all.
Instead, there's a tray that folds out INSIDE the stereo, where your ipod sits, and plugs in via the usb plug. I LOVE it.
Sounds great too!

Yep for the price of the adapter I just replaced the head unit

You can also buy a kit off ebay for like 60 bucks that plugs up to your factory HU.
Don't remember exactly what it's called,
but I bought one originally for my car and it worked great.

eventually I would like to replace the radio but that is pricey!

For the price of buying cables to hook up to your existing radio and the installation, you can just buy a new head unit with an audio jack. I payed too much for a Ipod hookup for the original radio on my old Ranger. It'll look better than the factory radio and you should still have the same sound quality.

cheapest way of doing this is= buying a fm transmitter that will play over ure radio

2nd cheapest way= buying a very cheap radio from say walmart with a ipod/mp3 hook up

best way = just save up for a decent headunit at best buy any pioneer is awesome and you can find them as cheap as 120.....

.02 if u go cheap you will only spend more money replacing it bc ure only gonna keep what makes u happy and 9 out of 10 something cheap is gonna fall short
