Default iPod

Ok I've been searching for hours and can't find an answer to my question. Please help! I recently purchased an iPod shuffle and want to make it compatible to my 2005 Scion tC. What do I need to buy - the cheapest and easiest the better.

Thanks!
Julie

Fm modulators is cheapest and easiest. it plugs into your cigarette lighter and into the headphone hack of the ipod and transmits a signal to your radio through radio waves(you set the modulator and the radio to the same station,one thats just static) to the radio

No '05's do not have an AUX jack - something I found out after buying my iPod!

I'll look for an FM Modulator ... thanks!

There is a cable that connects to the back of your radio to the ipod. the thing cost like 30bucks for a pretty good cable.

Yes, well I am not sure about stock stereos but it does on after market stereos. It conects in the back and is way more crisp then a CD. Theres also the ones that charge your ipod while you listen to it.
