A number of aftermarket car radios have an auxiliary input on them; all you need do is find or make up the right cables. Both my wife and I have upgraded our Nokia phones, and both our car radios have an auxiliary input. All I did was make up the cables and plug the phone into the car radio. When you do this, Nokia gives the option of “Music Player” or “Headphones”.
If you choose the headphone option, the phone microphone remains active, so when it rings, you simply answer. The other side of the conversation comes through the car’s sound system. A secondary benefit is that I can also play all the music stored on my phone’s memory card through the car’s sound system.

You can buy the cable of the shelve. It all depends on your radios input where it is a dc jack or RCA but both these cables is common.2.8 d/cab SFA wrote: can someone tell us how to make up the wire to plug the phone in?
