lookie what i did
 

ok so heres what i wanted to do. i wanted to take my phone and be able to hook it up to my stereo even though it doesnt have a headphone jack only the small tiny. I use the ghetto tape for like cd players in my car for my mp3 player. the reason i wanted to hook up my phone is now i have music on it and a lot more memory than my mp3 player but i still wanted to keep the regular headphone jack on the tape so i could use it for other things. so heres what i did.

i got one of those splitters for headphones where it has the headphone jack on end and two ends on the other end to plug two headphones into that looks like this.

next i got one of the wired headsets for cell phones with the small plug that looks like this.

i cut one end off of the splitter and the plug of the headset so i could connect the two
im having a problem with..... i call it the ground but its the wires that go around the other wire on the inside that are the first ones you see unsheathed, i connected them but its really touchy but i think i got it but if anyone has any ideas i would be glad to hear them.

so my finished wire looks like the wire in the middle of the phone and the tape

but then i would have to find it somewhere, besides i made mine for 2 dollars :D not that 3 more dollars matters

but i still had fun :btruestory:

And, to boot, you can tell people you made it.

:thumbup:

And when it stops working from being pulled on..he can retape the wires back together. ;)

If it works..it works.. good to see someone else wanted to play music off their phone.

i did the same with my 79 camaro and my phone, sept i didnt need any adapter. but for some reason the cassette tape to audio jack thing only put out on one speakerand sounded like balls, but i wont have to worry about that after thursday cause my 98 bonnie (with cd player) will be sitting in my garage :D

maybe i was a little bit hasty in making my wire but it does the trick and sounds like regular stereo, plus i get calls :D

Hey dude, don't let 'em give you any flack, that is just cool. Good 'ol American EN-GEN-NEW-ATEE. :2thumbup:

I feel that same way why go buy it when doing it yourself is soo much more fun. :headbang: .
