Hello, looking for some suggestions here...

I'm lucky enough to have one of the year models of the sentra that included an aux jack directly on the stereo. I've read that buying a cable and connecting it directly from the headset jack on the ipod could cause some distortion... I read a great review of the Flex Dock, but it's only made for mini's. I've scoured the ipod store, ebay, and google and can't seem to find something like this for the video ipod. Does anyone know of an option?

Basically I need something that will charge the ipod through my cigarette lighter, but also includes an aux jack that I can run a cable from to my stereo.

Any ideas would be great! Thanks

I play my iPod through my car stereo auxiliary jack, and it sounds awesome! I purchased this from Ebay, mainly because it is relatively compact, and the adjustable sides let me leave the iPod in the case. Even with the pretty high shipping, I thought the price was reasonable, and the shipping was very quick.

One caveat: my friend borrowed it and said the FM transmitter is very weak and didn't work, but that doesn't bother me because I don't need it. It works perfectly for my needs.

does the charger have an aux jack on it, or do you plug the cable straight into your headphone jack on the Ipod?

This one goes from the headphone jack to the car audio. The one I had before had a jack on the charger. No appreciable difference in the two in my opinion.
