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.

u can buy a plug and play system,its goes into your lighter and will run through the speakers from an ipod or mp3 player,uses whatever station is not on 'air'

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.....
