Hi There-

Not exactly sure what you are asking for, but I'm going to assume you mean a way to play an external music  player such as an ipod or Zune in your car without using the typical cassette adapter? And not asking about an external cassette player for your car?

Belkin is the most popular brand of adapter: you tune your radio to a certain station, plug the player in, and the music will stream through your radio.  Check out the one I posted below from Best Buy- after doing a LOT of research for these for my own player, I've found the prices are pretty much the same everywhere ($40-$50) whether or not you buy them online or in the store.
