I'm thinking of installing a Gromaudio device that, if your car radio
has a CD changer input jack, allows for USB input, AUX input from a
cellphone, and for another $50 Bluetooth use of the cellphone through
the car speakers and an add-on microphone (in addition to the first
$150).

The most important feature for me is the USB input.

Forget the input jack and use FM wireless. Search Ebay.


Do you mean something like this:

Yes, I'm sure you do. I bought it. And I've tested it in the car with
a little MP3 player and it works well afaict so far. Now to load up the
MP3 player before my trip in November.

Or this one is ridiculously cheap

This seemed to work well the first time, but it might be that the
battery went way down even when I wasn't using it and after recharging,
the sound still wasn't as good as the first time. Maybe I picked a bad
vacant frequency. Maybe I'll find the same sort of thing for more money
and that will mean it's better?

I think for $3 I'll buy another one, for when I break the first one.
