I don't actually own this product but I can tell you with reasonable certainty that the radio station doesn't matter. This product transmits the audio to an auxiliary or AUX port on your radio, it doesn't work wirelessly. If you don't have one of these ports on your radio you'll need a different product, such as an FM transmitter, to use your iPod/iPhone with your vehicle's radio.

Yes, it gets power from your cigarette lighter. Then you find an unused fm radio station on your stereo, dial in the same frequency on the Monster adaptor, and then tunes from your iPod or iPhone come out of your car speakers . It works fairly well with my iPhone 4S. Should work with the iPod using the same adaptor.

I use it with my 5th generation ipod. Since it is a "hard drive" based ipod the radio does sometimes take a while to read the files on the ipod before the menus show up on the screen but it works 99% of the time. I will say that if you turn the car off and leave the ipod attached that it will drain the battery on the ipod so make sure you detach the ipod from the cable/car after use. Good luck.

They don't give a list. What you do is register your radio, during the registration process they will ask what phone you have and send you the correct usb for your phone. For newer cell phones, they all now have the same mini charging port! Great idea.

I had to update my car stereo with one that has a MP3 jack. Without that MP3 jack my stereo couldn't play podcasts from my iPhone or music from my MP3 player (not necessarily iPod).

Hi Gayle.. Im happy to try and answer....Theoretically yes, the 3.5mm male end is supposed to act like a headphones jack carrying the signal to the intended ipod dock or any ipod male 32pin plug ...but I tried this on my android phone to the car ipod plug and it did not work:}

The Aux cord will only work if you have an auxiliary port in your car. I don't, so this doesn't work for me. You have to plug the cord into your phone and then the aux into the outlet in your car. If you don't have one, then it will only work as a car charger...and even that doesn't work all the time! This was a waste of money for me.

You need a car docking kit which they don't tell you need with radio. I searched for almost 3 months, both on line and locally for car docking kit that went with radio. Never found one. I ended up purchasing an Onyx radio which had car docking kit. My brother hooked it up in car and I love it! Believe I returned the radio in picture as it was just brand new junk. Can't use without a docking station. Hope this answers your question.

Regretfully, I don't think so. Nissan blames Apple and Apple blames Nissan. From what I can gather online, one of the iPod updates made the iPod incompatible with the Nissan radio, and in my car there is no other way to connect the iPod. Imagine that, a nice car with a million features and I can't use an MP3 player in it! Although...you may luck out. If your car does not have GPS it may have a regular old Aux input jack with the same connector headphones have. Good luck!

This charger comes with a USB to Multi pin connector cable, as found on the iPod Classic and pre-iPhone 5's, iPod Touches and iPads. Newer phones, iPods and iPads, including the mini, now use a lightning connector. As long as you have a separate USB to lightning connector cable, you can unplug the cable that comes with the charger and use the lightning connector cable for the iPad mini. I use this charger with all my Apple iOS devices with no problem.

you cannot use the mini-usb cable with apple products. If you look at the part of the Flex Smart that plugs into the car, you will find a USB port. Use the cable that came with the iphone (lightning charger) and connect to this regular USB port. You can now use your regular iphone cable to charge your iphone 5.

This charger does not fit the radio. There is a charger that fits but I don't recall which one it is.... but not this one. I wouldn't buy an adapter.

Return the AppRadio. You will not enjoy it even if the iPod magically starts working. There are new built-in Apple Play radios on the horizon. Wait. You'll be glad you did. Here's an article about Apple's CarPlay announced 03/04/2014: http://gu.com/p/3n84n

you can always buy the little converter thingy so he can use both (Give me®3-PACK 8 pin to 30 pin Charge & Sync Cable Adapter For Apple iPhone 5s/5c/5 4s/4 iPod iPad (white)). However, you should not buy this unit! I bought one for my wife; on day three the clock stopped working and on day five the radio stopped working. For $30 more you can get this rockin' Sony docking station (Sony ICFCS15IPN) ; I've abused mine for a couple years and it keeps on humming.

For sure-you can plug it into any usb charge-like for your car to....you would plug the mini usb part into the music box then plug the reg usb into any wall usb charger/car charger which ever you prefer
