What's the best method for using my MP3 player in the car?
 
Having recently bought a Timmkoo (yes I know silly name) MP3 player which I can play in my motor via my JBL Go box, I know it would be better to run it through the car radio. Googling reveals a plethora of cheap devices that are described as Bluetooth/FM transmitters powered via the cigarette lighter or possibly even the cassette player. Can anyone proffer advice on which way to go please?

Which head unit does your car have?

Symphony, thanks. Since posting I have found a cassette adapter which looks the simplest way but reviews say it either works, or doesn't, but it would be interesting to hear of others experience.

My wife has been using one of these for about a year and a half: https://amzn.eu/d/4hC1Tfj

She either connects her phone via Bluetooth or plugs in a USB memory stick with music saved on it.

Just to wrap this up I have bought this very expensive adapter - and it works just dandy.


NO it doesn't: worked fine for a few miles . . .

Bought this dirt cheap FM Transmitter which just plugs into the headphone socket of my MP3 player. Synchronise your radio with the transmitter - any one not too near an existing channel and it works brilliantly. I just lay it on the passenger glove shelf and there's no interference or fading at all. So now I can play all my favourite music. Next thing is to run a feed from the fuse box to keep it well charged.
