I find that the audio for voice directions (when it works) is not very loud in the car. My radio does not have an aux input so I cant use that method to get the audio into the car speakers. I wonder if anyone has tried one of the many BT FM transmitter devices that are on TradeMe and allow playing music from your phone over the car stereo?
Thanks.




 I'm supposed to respect my elders, but it's getting harder and harder for me to find one now.

I don't know about voice directions but I regularly listen to music on my N1 through a FM transmitter that I pick up on the car stereo. It works pretty well.

I used to use a cheap Trademe thing but now use this

which both charges the phone and sends a signal to the car stereo unit. And it's pretty cheap at £7.99 including shipping to NZ
