Do what I did, take out the stock radio and put in a better one. I really hated that radio and the speakers (the speakers especially!). Replaced the whole thing about 2 months after I bought my car in 2004. I got a Pioneer radio and, last year, got an iPod for Xmas. Pioneer makes an adapter plug that works nicely with the iPod. The newer radios will control the iPod and also display what songs are on, etc.

I have been looking for a way to connect my ipod to my 2003 pt gt stock stereo. I don't want to go with the fm transmitter since I have to continually change channels to get clear audio in my area. The DLO Direct http://www.dlo.com/Products/TPDirect...08435814253047 looked good because it connects to the stereo with a miniplug and charges the ipod, but you can't control the ipod with the stereo controls. What I did find that looks good is the Neo Ion http://www.mp3yourcar.com/default.asp which connects dirrectly to the stereo and allows for stereo button control. I think this is the best way to go since you can place the ipod in a glove box and lock it out of sight, or take it out so someone in the car can be the DJ. Direct connect should provide the best audio. And best of all you should be able to load your car with over 15,000 songs, much better then a cd changer. So tell me what you think about any of the products mentioned above. If you have used them, what you think and ease of instalation.

ROCK ON [?]
