    Now that you have your favorite tunes on your mp3 player, let's decide which way is the best way for you to play it in your car. An FM transmitter uses an empty radio station in your area to play your mp3's. If you do not have a cd player and you have a cassette, then you can use a tape deck converter. If you do have a cd player, then you need a cd player that is mp3 ready or comes with an auxilary jack.

  2. Step 2

    Once you have chosen your equipment, follow the directions provided with each individual item. All converters plug into the headphone jack on your mp3 player.

  3. Step 3

    If you have an FM transmitter, then find a station with the most static and tune into your mp3 player.
    If you have a Cassette deck converter, then just insert the tape into the tape deck.

Tips & Warnings
  • Aux Jack equipped Cd player is the best way to listen to your mp3 player in your car.
  • Stations with the most static work the best with an FM transmitter.
  • If you leave your mp3 player in your car without your supervision, it could be stolen.
