    They're all pretty crap really.

    If you can, find some way to connect it to a line-in on your radio, otherwise your best bet is one of the FM transmitters that you plug into the aerial socket on the back of your radio.

    as lum says,without spending a fortune i use an aux 3.5mm jack lead. plug into stereos aux plug and iphone or ipod headphone plug. works great.

    all you need to do now is find an aux plug on your stereo.

    I spent £40 on a Belkin transmitter one - its crap - go with the 3.5mm jack lead - you'll get a better quality connection

    Pretty much anything made by Belkin is crap, just FYI.

    I'm perfectly happy with my Asda one (they had a 2 for £8 offer a little while ago, not sure if it's still on). A little time spent tuning so there's no radio interferance was well worthwhile.

    That said, I am looking to get a headunit that properly caters for my iphone eventually.
