Best ipod FM transmitter for rx-8..
Ok so I don't have the money to upgrade my stock head unit in my 8, but I want to use my 120gb ipod in it. So I'm going to settle on sub-par sound quality through a FM transmitter. I have read that the griffin itrip and the DLO transpod have the best sound quality in most cars. They say it is very dependent on the particular car model and the head unit in the vehicle. Does anyone have any experience with one that worked fairly well (little to no static)? I'd rather make an informed buying decision then return a bunch of transmitters that suck ***..

I'd suggest the XtremeMac, Belkin, or Kensington. The Kensington has bee noted to be great by a lot of reviewers. However, even the best FM transmitters are subject to some static/loss of quality.

i use the griffin itrip for my sansa. it's not perfect but it works fine. it'll never be direct-connect quality but i don't need that at this point. i wouldn't recommend it but i wouldn't cast my vote against it either.

Well, if you have an ipod, then you can get the mazda ipod integration thing, which allows for the radio controls to seek and skip tracks on the ipod itself. I got a car2pc for my carputer in the works, and it has an aux jack and a usb port for the stereo to control the computer. It was like $80 and that's roughly the price of a regular aux jack for this car. Search around, there are multiple threads that can help. But one thing to be sure to do is check your firmware before you buy anything and make sure it's compatible.
hope this helps.
