I would avoid FM Transmitters all together and get something like X-Carlink so you can hook your iPod up directly to the stereo. The sound quality will be a lot better, FM Transmitters are a bit hit and miss.

There's a DICE one that comes through the FM but is connected (ie. not a transmitter per se) that also sticks the tracknames etc in the RDS signal so it shows on the screen. I mean to get one of these if I can tell if it's any good. 79 quid iirc.

Sounds interesting. Have you get a link, and are they universal?
