A manual or a guide that will bypass the car stereo and make the ipod output to fitted car speakers.

if you have four speakers, then go purchase yourself a 4ch amp to drive your speakers. Then for the four line inputs of the amp, use two y connectors and get yourself a baby plug to rca wire and connect it to the two y connectors. Connect the baby plug to the earjack of your ipod. Now you may be able to listen to whatever is filled to your ipod through you car speakers.

Not possible without amplification and an elaborate switch for all the speakers.

I found the best thing since sliced bread.crutchfield.com/S 9oDEWuNVIo6/cgi bin/prodview.asp?i=142FMMOD01crutchfield.com/S 9oDEWuNVIo6/cgi bin/prodview.asp?i=142FMMOD01">crutchfield.com/s 9odewunvio6.

It's not wireless so there is no interference. Not to be perplexed with an FM transmitter. just it adds an AUX input to ANY radio.

It feeds your audio signal from a headset 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.

You can not, the ipod can not drive the car speakers. You need an amplifier to drive them, so just purchase one of the ipod adapters that are out there, they take the audio from the headset jack and transmit it on an FM signal which you then tune in with the radio in the car. If your car radio does not work you may want to replace it 1st, but then just purchase one that has the external jack.
