Having a cassette player in your car is something that a lot of people are going back to. The invention of the iPod transmitter has proven irritating with constant buzz and interference giving poor sound quality. The problem is that most new cars will offer audio in jacks, leaving older cars high and dry. If you’re looking to install a cassette player in your car for the tape adapter option with an iPod, here are a couple of places you can find old car cassette players.

1.&nbps;&nbps;&nbps;Junk yards. Junk yards are one of the best places to find old car parts. If you have a junk yard near your house, take a trip down the street to see what they have to offer. A lot of junk yards are keeping an inventory of their parts now so they will be able to tell you what kind of cassette players they have and what could fit in your car.

2.&nbps;&nbps;&nbps;Goodwill Stores. Goodwill stores always have strange electronics from the long long ago. Head to your neighborhood Goodwill store or just a local thrift shop and take a look through their electronics section. If you’re willing to keep checking back with them, you might be able to find an old cassette player for your car. Make friends with one of the employees and have them on the look out for when their inventory changes.

3.&nbps;&nbps;&nbps;The Flea Market. The flea market is one of the best resources for finding retro and outdated technology. If you’re looking for a cassette player for your car, there is no better place to find one than the flea market. Every flea market will have somebody selling third party car stereo parts or weird electronics. Ask them if they have anything lying

around their home, as that is where most of their inventory is going to be.

4.&nbps;&nbps;&nbps;Craigslist. Place an ad on Craigslist saying that you’re looking for a car cassette player. A lot of people upgrade their stereos as soon as they buy a car and just have these pieces lying around. For a small fee, they might even be able to install if for you.
