Can I play my mp3 on a car cd player

Oct 28, 2005 4:17AM PDT

Hi
I'm renting a car soon and it has just a cd player(no cassette). Is there an adaptor out there I can use to play my portable mp3 player? I've looked on the net and can only find cassette adaptors.
Thanks.

Your car player may have in-let for media. Please check and if it has an inlet then you are luck, please connect the out-let from the mp3 player and connect the same to in-let of car player.

FM Modulator?

Will a FM Modulator work by running the output of your MP-3 player into the modulator and the modulator broadcast a radio signal to your car radio on a clear frequency?
