car audio question

Hi.
I want to remove my radio in my 911 and just put a delete plate, mainly because the radio I have clash with the rest of the interior. however, I would like to be able to listen to my MP3 player.
what device could I buy, that I could plug the output of my MP3 player, and would distribute the music to my existing car speakers?
it be better if it would be a small thing I could hide somewhere...
any Ideas /recommendations ?

you need a way to amplify the headphone output to drive speaker level output.

You can always wire in a small amplifier under the seat and run a Male RCA to 3.5MM stereo male to the glovebox, and use the ignition to turn on the amplifier.

It's a messy setup easier to buy a radio with an 3.5 MM input.

no he wants to eliminate the unsightly radio all together......
"no he wants to eliminate the unsightly radio" LOL

a small amp is your best bet, you can get a volume knob which has rca input/output to control the volume if you need it, chances are you'll have some grounding issues/noise which will require some fiddling with to eliminate....but totally doable and simple.
i ran a similar setup but was pretty elaborate.....i used a sirius tuner into an rca line driver, a knob.....trunk mount eq....multiple amps etc when i had my 911.....
