hmmm, that's what I thought, the FM band is so saturated there's almost no open frequency.

thanks!




Yup...Get a wired one , u unplug the antenna from ur deck, and attach it to the modulator and the wired modulator replaces the antenna.....very straight foward

Do they sound as bad as I think they will or is it ok? I don't want to spend $$$ on a new deck so this is my cheapest option right now.

Opinions?

Go on the website, pick one, and tell me which one you want.


You can also check out THS Studios.

          i would say that you just buy a new deck MP3 compatible its your best option and its better on sound! we went with orale to buy one this weekend for the Rover and looked at the FM Transmitter and the guy told us its better on some cars then other depending on your stero system so he we bought a new deck instead not too bad on price and it sounds great so were happy!
