Got this little cig lighter mp3 swap stick player...

....its pretty awesome, got it at walmart for $30, and put it in the lighter and tune to certain radio stations and it plays songs off a usb swap stick...sometimes its a little fuzy, but its pretty sweet. Anybody else seen or used these? Pretty cool for quick listening or taking songs to a friends car or a trip....

its just a unit that u plug in a usb swap stick into, and u just put all the mp3s on the stick, and it plays from there. only bad part is, if you shutoff your car the unit doesnt remember where it left off on the songs....have to search back thru...but i put like 50-60 songs on mine and it worked fine...i seen one on ebay like it, try searching lighter mp3, or lighter usb or car or something maybe....

i tried to find it online, but no luck, its made by Virtual Reality Sound Labs (VR3) and just says Mp3 FM Modulator. It takes the usb or you can use a cord and plug in mp3 players too and use things like ipods i guess....their site is : www.virtualrealitysoundlabs.com , but I couldnt find it on there...

THIS IS NOT THE ONE I HAVE, BUT SAME CONCEPT I FOUND ON EBAY

if you find the one i got, lemme know

cool, but why would you need this if the stock radio can play mp3's?

very VERY cool idea.. but if your stock system plays mp3's.. there is no point in gettin this.. Besides it wouldnt be full cd quality. This is FM radio quality... but cool anyway.. ok bye

well i guess thats true...reason i got it is, I am not driving my tC thru winter, but my 92 accord, which dont play mp3 cds, and its also cool when you just have a few new songs and dont want to have to burn a whole new cd just to add a few songs....and if you want to go in a friends car, you can easily take your mp3s with you...because a lot of peoples cd players dont play mp3 cds....cool idea tho...
