The dollar store still sells those cassette tape converters, if it's an older system, otherwise Bluetooth, aux in or find a cheap FM transmitter.

What kind of head unit do you have in your car? Is it stock? Does it have a 3.5 mm audio input jack for auxiliary input? You need to provide more info.

Heheh, cassettes... man - I don't think they've included a cassette player in car in the past 15 years. Could be wrong, though. But yeah, a cheap FM transmitter would be his best bet if he doesn't have a standard aux-in on his head unit.

Give us some more information on your car system please. Most systems made in the last 5 or so years have a 3.5mm aux input so you can jack in that way.
