Hi. I was wondering if anyone has owned an FM transmitter. I am looking for
one to connect a CD/MP3 player and then transmit the signal across some
frequency so I can listen to it in the car. I've seen some products (like
TuneCast) but the reviews seem to indicate that the sound quality is not
that good. If it sounds as good as sound from the radio, I guess that is
okay.

Do you have any suggestions for a good FM transmitter?

Thank you.

spend the same money on a wired one that connects directly to the antenna
and invest a little time running the wires properly

Hi. That's the good idea, but I have no experience with audio wiring. Are
there instructions available on the Internet to show me how to do this? The
car is an old Toyota Corolla and the antenna is right above the driver, on
the left of the roof.

I see. Do you know a site where they sell this adapter?

I don't even know what a "head unit" is - I did some reading and figured
it's the thingy with the radio buttons and such. Is it easy to open up?
I've never done this and I'm unsure and afraid I might break something.

It's pretty straightforward. The connections are made at the back of the
head unit. You unplug the car's antenna from the head unit, plug the
adaptor in its place, and the re-plug the car's antenna into the adaptor.
As long as you can get to the back of your head unit, you should be in
good
shape.

Take a look at www.crutchfield.com.

I'm pretty sure they sell that kind of adapter, and they also sell
how-to packets particular to make and model.

the email address is real
the contents of the post are not

it's very simple ......try ebay, they are the cheapest


the install is easy

pull out the radio, just take your time and go slow.....there should be a
red and a black wire running into the head unit, red is power, black is
ground, there also may be a blue lead from the radio, you can use this for
power as well....there *should* be red and black, if there isn't you're in
trouble


I bet if you try a local shop they'll install one for $40, part included, it
might take them 40 minutes , likely less
