Can anyone recommend what is the best one around, currently using my dad's five quid version which I believe to be the same as the griffen (oval shape) ones. Works ok actually, X2 AAA and plugs into the 3.5.

Tried my mates itrip griffen, plugs into the dock and that seems to be better. Just wondered if there is a market leader?

Iam thinking about this - http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/CAR-FM-RADIO-TRANSMITTER-CHARGER-FOR-IPOD-IPHONE-3GS_W0QQitemZ200395440444QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUK_AudioVideoElectronics_PortableAudio_MP3PlayerCarKits? hash=item2ea87fc13c

Casette Tape connector (if you have one).

Never had any consistent luck with the FM stuff.

If you are only going to use it in the car then I have this one it works well.

Try Blitzsafe and see if they offer a solution for your car. The sound quality of the iPod/iPhone when directly connected to your car is very crisp and clear. If you use FMtransmitter, it will not be. Try to hard wire it

Disconnect the antenna (aerial for you brits) and it will pick up the signal alot better, but you won't get good radio reception ....
