    Hey guys, can you recommend a good (awesome sound quality would be prefered ) FM Transmitter so that I can use my MP3 player in the car? Cheers.

    Dont know of any.
    Would be much better if your head unit had an AUX in and the mp3 player a line out.

    The ones that we use to install DVD players stil arn't as good as a proper hard wired Aux-in. Check if stinger have one, you may need a RCA to jack cable to use them though. Most companies have a FM modulator that is used for the DVD systems.

    Don't bother with FM transmitter, unless absolutely needed.

    I take it you (poloplayer) have a late model Polo, with a stock deck and want to run your ipod/mp3 player.
    The stock decks do not have a aux-in, so you need a FM modulator. and a FM mod is far cheaper than a new deck, especialy in a new vw with cam-bus systems.

    Whoops, better clear up some confusion. My dad has a Camry, and all I want to do is use my mp3 player in there. Has no aux in, or cassette deck. So was just wondering if you guys could recommend good value FM Transmitter for the mp3 player

    These are two differant types you could use.
    Most audio companys have one of these avalible.

    Edit* after much searching of "the net", i cant find any more of the second one.
