huzzsaba Posted June 13, 2017 Report Share Posted June 13, 2017 (edited) My older car does not have an aux port to play audio from usb or other devices etc. I recently heard about bluetooth Fm transmitter being a cost effective solution, at the same time heard that the quality is not that great. Maybe better brand has better quality? Does anyone have any experience with these? Any good brands out there anyone have experience with and can recommend? Thanks in advance!

Used it with a Sony CD walkman and a 512 Mb mp3 player LOL. My present 2006 Jeep has your problem, I just burn stuff on CD, old skool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Dave. that is what I have been doing until now but tired of cds skipping and wearing down too fast. I have been buying cds to burn from dollarama. Not sure if there are cheap quality cds and better quality ones that are more resistant to scratching and wear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DRIFTER_016 Posted June 14, 2017 Report Share Posted June 14, 2017 I'm going to use one of these out @ the cabin. Best thing besides USB, bluetooth etc is it's shallow enough to fit in a 2X4 wall!!! Gonna be sweet streaming from my ipod out on the deck. http://www.canadiantire.ca/en/pdp/pioneer-mvh-291bt-1d-car-stereo-0350325p.html#srp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bass Tard Posted June 19, 2017 Report Share Posted June 19, 2017 I've been using that stupid tape thing in my 04 4Runner. It kinda sucks, but not nearly as much as my fm transmitter did. Now, I do think the FM transmitter could work better if you were somewhere up north where there isn't a lot of radio stations. Around here, there's a signal on almost every number that's as strong, or stronger than your tiny transmitter, so there's always a lot of interference. My suggestion even though it isn't much help, is keep an eye on Kijiji, in the past month I've picked up one for my truck for $65, and one for my wife's car (brand new) for $80. Install is pretty straight forward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
