Better get a cassette adapter and a separate ipod car charger
My iTrip didn’t do anything for me for the following two reasons:
1) The charger doesn’t charge the iPod nano and still drains down its battery.

Hard to believe this is a #1 item in Amazon
For whatever reason, this product does not work in my Acura Integra.
I had Kensington Universal FM Transmitter for MP3 Players (Black)…

Great Product
Great product. Very happy with it. I wish it could play (already charged)Ipod even when the charger plug is not plugged. Wondering how can I use it this way.

Griffin works!
Previously purchased a more expensive Belkin brand which failed miserably. Purchased this unit and it worked so well, that I bought another for the other car.

Good, but not great
The product works fine, just as advertised, but the sound isn’t the greatest, primarily because it has to come through the radio, so the bass is very low.

Plays Great, But Doesn’t Charge
This item shipped immediately. I was able to simply rip it out of the package, plug, and play. However, after a few days use I noticed that it does not charge my iPod.

As expected
After reading the other reviews for this product, I decided it was worth trying. I drive between Boston and NYC quite a bit and my 2006 car does not have an ipod input.

Works great if you can find an empty frequency!
Love this product; easy to use and reliable. I have a 4GB iPod mini that won’t stay charged on its own so this is the perfect solution for me.

Surpisingly…
Considering that similar products run $60-$100, I was impressed with this product. Easy to set up and fairly good sound. It’s worth risking $13 to try it.

Don’t believe the hype
I purchased this after reading the positive reviews here, particularly the one with the instructions on how to set up international mode.
