iPhone 3G Car Kit, Full Hands-free Through Car Speakers
Product Description
Welcome to the complete in car solution for your iPod/iPhone. This kit has been beautifully designed and works with all iPods and the iPhone (including the new iPhone 3G). This kit is not only about style, it incorporates three different iPod/iPhone car products in one great package. Firstly you have a convenient and strong cradle to hold your iPod/iPhone securely with an adjustable arm you can position into virtually any position depending on your car. Secondly this car kit once plugged into your iPod/iPhone acts as a charger for pure convenience so you never miss out on a track or phone call again. Finally but most importantly this kit features a FM transmitter which allows you to play your favourite tunes through your car stereo speakers.
Simply plug this in car kit into your cigarette lighter, attach your iPod/iPhone, synchronise your in car radio to one of the stations using the digital LCD display and thats it. As for iPhone users you will have one more feature out of this already excellent piece of kit, maybe for you it will be the the best feature of all. If you are listening to music through this transmitter in your car and you receive a call, you will be able to use this item as a complete hands free car kit with audio coming through your car speakers. Your iPod will mute the music being played and notify you of a call coming through which you can just easily accept without having to remove your iPhone from the kit. An integrated USB port has also been added so you can charge up various USB devices. This is a definite must have for any iPod/iPhone car user and a very fine and high quality example.

I bought this but have regretted it hugely and it’s a waste of space as the stalk that supports the device (iphone 3G in my case) is not stable enough and won’t hold the iphone in position. Maybe it works better for lighter devices but for iphones…. forget it.

This is a great product. Simple to set up, install and use. I use it in my truct and car and means that I can have loads and loads of my tunes playing when I want tham. Best of all, this was half the price that others wanted to sell it to me for. Go get yourself one.

Bought this based on the first review, big mistake. You need to really push this device into the lighter socket and of course pull it out every time you get out of the car. The devise will stay on if left in the car, no on/off switch and even if engine off will still stay live. The iphone wont connect with the radio very well at all, spent hours trying to tune it and at best can only get a real poor sound. Also does not dis-connect when a call comes in. It does charge and goose neck can be adjusted but other than that a waste of money. So going in the bin and will look for a device that does the job properly. Trust me this item is really rubbish. Only gave it one star so i could write a review.

A must for all iPhone users, allows you to listen to your favourite music and make and receive calls (the unit automatically switches between the two) and a lot cheaper than a £60 fine!! Not tried it with an iPod yet, however I am sure some one will let us know how they get on. My advice, get one. Many thanks accessory-shop.

This product was fabulous on a long trip up north in a hired car (a VW Golf) where Radio 1 reception was a bit dodgy. However, it doesn’t work in my own car (a Jaguar X-Type) because the lighter socket is recessed too far for the connection to work and still be able to change gears safely. I’d therefore recommend doing some research before buying to see where your lighter socket is and how easily this might attach. Could perhaps have been designed with a longer, more flexible connection.
