as said, fm adapter or cassette adapter is you're only easy option with factory radios.  I know some other car radios you can get special adpaters so your gayPod acts like a cd changer, but not seem one that works with Omega headunits.

I seem to recall the audio amp in the units has a spare stereo input, but that would require some skills in electronics

Though I doubt any will be perfect, there are good and bad fm modulators.

Is it because I sell them?

Or more importantly, because I only sell ones that work?
