Default ipod car adapter

Does anyone know a good solution for listening to music collections from Apple devices in the car? I know that there are special car adapters for this. Can you suggest any? I was searching and the best reviews for connecting Apple devices has car adapter AUX Link. But before purchasing it I'd like to get some more information...Is someone using it? What's your opinion? Any other solutions?

I purchased AUX Link almost one year ago. Really satisfied. Great sound, no technical problems so far. Had to spend more time than I was planning to install it, but finally it worked out well (I did the installation on my own, but at any specialized workshop you can have it done in no time). I was purchasing here AUX Car Kits. It's official store so they have lowest prices (at least when I was buying it) and free delivery free worldwide delivery. As for advantages of AUX Link, it can be also used as a charger and a Bluetooth hands-free kit. Besides you can control the music using the buttons on the steering wheel or on the car radio. Highly recommended.

Thanks! I checked it out. Positive reviews. Did you buy it together with Bluetooth dongle?To use AUX Link as a Bluetooth car handsfree kit...Is it worth it?

I believe it's absolutely worth it. It's a great substitution for a separate car hands-free kit. In other words with this AUX Link you get adapter, charger and a Bluetooth hands-free kit. Three devices in one.

Guys, wanted to tell you about my personal experience. Eventually made up my mind to buy AUX Link car adapter. I was trying to find the best deal and it's really much cheaper to purchase it at the official website AUX Car Kits. The adapter was delivered in just five days. At first I tried to install it on my own, but experienced some problems taking out the OEM car stereo. So finally I had it installed in the nearest auto workshop. It took around 15 minutes. So far totally satisfied with the purchase.

Advantages:

- crystal clear sound
- can be used as a charger
- with Bluetooth dongle works perfectly as a Bluetooth AUX car adapter
- music control with buttons on the steering wheel and buttons on the car head unit (very convenient)
- read all music formats
- compatible with my iOS devices, but there is also a plug for other mobile devices
- delivery is free and fast
- occupies very little space and almost invisible
- now I can listen to all my favourite music without carrying piles of CDs.

Disadvantages:

- relatively expensive as I also bought additional Bluetooth dongle
- could't easily take out the head unit so had to go to service center

But taking everything into account, I think it's a good price-quality ratio. So all in all it's worth it.
