Tip of the day...

For those of you who have a Ipod or other type of MP3 player and do not have a "AUX" port---I found this to be the best FM transmitter on the market for the money.

Check this link. Only $26----->http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000E43GOO

I found the tape adapter works really well if you set your ipod/mp3's EQ to treble boost. The sound is really close to cd quality.

yep, I've had an old sony tape adaptor that works real great. FM transmitters will static sometimes even though theyre right there next to it. Nothing beats AUX though, its just so much clearer in my brothers car.

Yeah I forgot about the cassette-player. Definetly far better than the transmitter method.

For those of you with a cassette-player(wrong generation), wich are all of you...please disregard this post.

Moderators please cut me some slack, and delete this post(help a Brotha out).

Many have complained about it, but the cassette-player is the "AUX PORT" of pre-2007 Maxima's. It may not be the prettiest "AUX", but it does a good job of importing your music from a MP3 player of any kind.

In this day of age, the absolute best utilization of a cassette-player!

I took my FM transmitter and bought about a 10 foot wire. ran it from my antenna (which I wrapped it around) All the way up to the front of the car and hooked it to the antenna on the FM transmittor = no static. = about 25 dollars.

I have a tape adapter too and it works just fine. Tried all kinds of FM transmitters but they just dont produce a clear sound.
