I don't want a new cd/radio but I want a....

3.5" adapter jack so I can plug in a ipod.

Is there any way I can hook up a cable to the stock double din radio?

I want to keep everything as stock looking as possible (to deffer thieves)

For all the work that would take, I would just use a tape deck kit.

Dang that hard huh?!

I should have known...I hear the quality sucks...I guess it is back to burning good ol' CDs again

They sell ipod adapters for your stock radio on ebay.

^you can do either. The radio adapter for mp3 players creates its own frequency that you car can then be tuned to. the tape deck is cheaper and plugs straight into the headphone jack. IMO the tape deck works fine, i have a 3rd gen touch and i keep the vol at 80% and then adjust accordingly with the car volume. the frequency adapter is iffy because sometime you won't get good reception, the only good part is it also charges your ipod

I had a pretty ****ty tape deck one for my ipod, but surprisingly the the music (through ipods, at least) sounded great. I also bought a gigaware fm transmitter, and at first there was some whining/distortion, but after a few days, everything worked 100%. i returned the thing though because they have a life of about a year before the transmitter goes out.

go with a tape deck one. or just invest in a new head unit.....

i got the tape adapter for a while now and its legit. no static at all.

I thin I may just go with the tape thing...

I want to keep it super stock looking because hondas always get broken into around where i live

yea i get what your saying. Dont get the radio one, those usually have static. tape is the best imo

I can vouch for the Peripheral kit in Honda's. My dad has one in his S2000. It is nice because you can use your factory controls and it charges your Ipod. I don't think it has a 1/8in jack, just and Ipod connector which may be important if you have other devices. Obviously more costly.
