iPod in ES300

I have a 96 ES with a changer in the trunk and looking to add an AUX for my iPod. I have read conflicting accounts of whether these devices actually work. Anyone have any experience?

I personally don't know how you would hook up that so called aux adaptor to your cd player, i mean it's pretty much impossible, being that the cd is optical. I think the only adaptors for adding external devices are the ones that transmit the audio using an FM signal.

First off, will one of these units work with my stock headunit? If so, can someone point me to a place where I can obtain one? Thanks.

i was told if you get the car kit you just have to tune the radio to a certain station and the ipod just plays throught the radio also i know circut city has them ok...........

Check out Blitzsafe @ http://www.blitzsafe.com/blitz_catal...z_catalog.html and see if they may have something,or you can use any FM modulator or cassette adapter to input sound to the factory head unit.
