Talking Car Stereo

Hi, I have a 2004 A4. I'm really into music and was looking for a deck that will play from my mp3 player, or at least play mp3 cds. I wanted to know if there are any concerns I should consider when replacing my deck, and if anyone knows of good decks that won't look too out of place in the car.

I have tried fm transmitters and cassette adapters but the sound quality is not good enough for my trance.

Has anyone looked into this before?

I don't know too much about this. An iPod adapter would be perfect. I would like to keep the original stereo but i don't know enough about it. I figured it wouldn't support that. But if it does, do u know of any places in Toronto that will install this for me?

your dealer has a interface for the Ipod and also there are several aftermarket ones, they are limited in the controls you get from them depending which ones you go with.

The song name/track number displays on your dash. You can change tracks form your wheel. The ipod can be hidden in your glove compartment. You have the option of controlling the ipod from the centre console or from the actual ipod itself.
