I want to play my iPhone in my vehicle

Wow. I thought people would forget about that. That's why I'm glad I have a droid now, no silly iOS spellchecker

I use one of these, works better than a standard fm modulater although it still works on fm frequencies. If your phone can connect with stereo bluetooth you are good to go.

They are much cheaper at fry's in the store.

Hands down the best way I've found is a little adapter that connects to the back of your Jeep stereo where a cd changer would typically go.

About $60 and easy to install. Basically, now I can connect anything with a 1/8" earphone plug directly into my stereo system.

The link is to the one I bought but make sure you get the one for your model/year.

I have a similar setup to this for my Ipod in my BMW. Sounds as good as a cd. Even get to use the steering wheel controls.

I had a new stereo installed in my Cobalt for this reason. I don't like the FM transmitters one bit. I chose the least expensive option that had a front USB port. I could've installed it myself but chose to have it professionally installed.

I don't regret it one bit. I plug in my iPhone with the USB cable every time I get in the car. Not only do I play my music from my phone, but I can also charge it. I've always got a car charger with me since all I need is the little cable. Also much better quality than an FM transmitter would be.

if you google it you can find instructions to wire a aux jack into about any factory radio and you can buy all the parts at radio shack for less than $10. i just put one in my 02 chevy truck and it works great cost only 2.49 for the jack and about a hours time

Is just replace the stereo seriously. A stereo that has an Ipod dock start as low as $80 plus maybe $7 for the wiring kit and whatever a dash install kit runs for your jeep maybe around $20. If your around Ft Wayne I could help you put it in. Its usually really easy.

Will it continue to integrate with the stereo controls on the steering wheel?

Some models can but its going to be more $$$. I cant name any off the top of my head and there may be an adapter as well that im not sure of. A friend of mine had a Grand Prix that had a radio like that.

Get something with a USB port.. front or rear, preferably front! You won't regret it one bit!

 

[tgallmey]

Rear is best for if you have an Ipod cause you can just get another USB charger and route it to your glove box if you plan on it being in your vehicle all the time, but if your using an Iphone or if you want access to the device all the time a front mounted USB would be best. If its set up to work with an I whatever it will also charge the device and you can control it using the stereo some are easier than others though. I guess there are adapters for aftermarket Car Stereos. Also an aftermarket stereo will usually make your speakers sound better ( I cant stand factory radios)

I highly recommend Crutchfield they have anything you want in car stereo stuff.
