Does anyone have any suggestions for what kind of adapter (i.e. fm transmitter) to get for my ipod that actually works. I have heard that some of them out there only work well with certain cars depending on the location of the antenna or something like that. Any info would be great.


Thanks,

Unfortunately, I can't recommend ANY wireless FM modulator. At some time any of them will totally suck.

What kind of car do you have? Maybe you can hardwire it - sounds MUCH better. Have yet to see anyone who hardwired post saying they had no improvement, but I've seen a LOT of posts by amazed listneres who heard a great improvement.

 

IF YOU MUST use FM modulation the Griffin iTrip is the best IMHO. I used mine for 2 weeks then I hardwired using the ICELink. Gave the iTrip to my son who was using the Belkin one - he says the iTrip is much better.

 

Here is what I did and the results...

Well...both the dock and the cupholder needed some aleration in-order to fit. I cut slots in the cup holder so that it would fit below the top of the cup holder. I also removed the weight and mounted two L-brackets to the back of the dock. Then I screwed the L-brakctes to the bottom of the cup holder. The dock needed a lot of it cut away, but with some time and effort you can make it fit. I am using a blitz-safe adapter to connect it to the head-unit. I am using the dock line-out and I connect that small plug of the line-out to a set of rca's that connect to the blitz-safe. I also have a belkin car charger pluged into the other connector on the back of the dock and that plugs into the power adapter in my center console. This makes it so that the iPOD charges while the car is on. The tricky part of the whole install was trying to find a line out that would fit between the dock and the cup holder space, I ended up using the iPOD monster cbale that connects the small line-out plug to the rca's. The key to that cable is that the mini-plug has a cover on it, which can be unscrewed so that it can bend in a 90 degree to get around the space issue.

Hope this helps...
