which one is better... using an ipod adapter to the car (how would that work by the way) or using a deck? the only way i can think of by using the ipod is through the tape player (which i dont have). any suggustions? which one would you prefer?

 

I use the IPOD thru the tape cassete works great IMO. But in your case you may just want to get the IPOD adapter for your radio. I personally like the way the stock radio looks.

 

I bought a Pioneer radio that comes with the IPOD adapter that plugs into the back of the head unit. I drilled a little hole in the storage area in the center console where you rest your elbow. I ran the cable down the back of the radio, under the center console around the shifter and into that storage place. I just leave my IPOD plugged in there all the time.
