Gone are the days of cassette tape players. CD`s and CD players are still widely available for use in vehicles, homes and portable players however Mp3 players are convenient player replacements that you can virtually take anywhere. Follow these steps to guide you through the connection process for your Mp3 player and car stereo.

• Step 1: Reference you Mp3 and vehicle stereo manuals. If your vehicle is newer it most likely has a connection auxiliary jack already installed for your Mp3 player. Other vehicles can still be considered for connection.

• Step 2: Purchase radio electronic equipment at a suitable electronics store. Buying online may void the manufacturer warranty. Equipment you may need could be a FM transmitter, stereo cable, RCA cord and if you have an older car stereo possible a cassette adapter. Consult the authorized staff at your local electronics store for specific requirements.

• Step 3: Connect the Mp3 player to your car stereo system. If you use a RCA cord, you will need to remove the stereo from the console and plug the cable into the back jacks and the other cord end to the player. Using a cassette adapter is simple. Connect the end to the player and insert the cassette adapter into the stereo. Using a FM transmitter, plug the cord into the headphone jack, turn your stereo on and tune both to the FM channel designated.

• Step 4: Consider an additional power source. Mp3 players and adapters will drain battery power. One option is to use an Mp3 docking station that connects to the charge port in your vehicle. This will charge the player while playing.

Mp3 players have wonderful enhancements over previous music technology allowing convenience to consumers. Referencing your Mp3 and stereo manuals; researching connectors and adapters available for purchase will help you make an informed decision on the purchase of connection equipment. With the right equipment you will be able to relax and enjoy your favorite songs off your Mp3 player anywhere you go.
