Great idea, Ok quality

The Bottom Line: A good product if you are looking for an inexpensive product that you don't really care for high quality where you can easily play your ipod on your car speakers.
I bought this accessory instead of buying the expensive dock thinking that it was an incredible purchase. I thought that I was going to be getting the same quality for a much less price. Unfortunately I didn't have that experience.
Although it is extremely easy to use, I had problems. All it requires is for your car to have a cassette player in it. It isn't one of those accessories where you have to tune your radio to a certain station, it simply plugs into your ipod, plug the wire into the outlet for the headphones, and control the music from the ipod itself.
The problem I am having is that the music skips all the time. I don't know if it is my cassette player or if it is the Belkin Car Kit itself. Once it plays for about 20 minutes skipping, it then will play normal, but the quality still is not great.
Even though I love the accessory, I rarely use it because I can not get very good quality from it. It is a less expensive alternative if you would like to use your ipod in the car, so I would recommend that it is given a chance, but don't expect the same quality that you would get on either a cd, an ipod dock, or through the ipod itself.
