Simply Perfect Product
Product is exactly what I needed now I can keep my IPOD charged and use the Aux input on my car without having to have two cables going to my IPOD. Aux is so so much better than a FM input! In addition to this product you will need a male/male aux input cable $6.99 at Radio Shack. The Aux cable plugs into the cigarette adapter end of the Belkin product and then will need to be run or tied into your Aux input. In my car the Aux input and charger plug are right next to each other so it was very easy! Volume control on the Belkin product allows you to get the right input level to match other radio settings and avoid distortion.

Great product
This cable does everything I wanted it to do. The sound quality is leaps and bounds better than using a 3.5mm cable through the headphone jack. I really like the built-in adjustable amplifier. The cord comes out of the connector at a 90° angle from the iPod. It takes a little getting used to, but it wasn't enough to dock it a star. I haven't experienced any ground-loop humming/buzzing with our '08 Accord sedan. It has integrated seamlessy into my setup. Overall I am very satisfied.

Works well
Charges you iPod. Has Analog out port to connect to tape cassette adapter. Has volume adjustment. Quality product.

Works great, but needs strain relief on connectors
I bought this as a gift for my girlfriend. She uses it with the Aux input jack in her Mazda3, and it works wonderfully. We particularly like the audio output at the base of the unit--that means that only one cable has to come out of the center console to connect to her iPod. We use a 12" cable between the Belkin charger and the Aux input, which keeps the cables to a minimum.

However, after about three months of use, the connection between the cable and the plug that connects to the iPod started to come loose. There was apparently no strain relief on that section, and the individual wires became visible as the outer jacket worked its way out. About two weeks later, it stopped transmitting music.

Thankfully, Belkin has a lifetime warranty (with an express replacement option)--so I just submitted the warranty information.

The only reason this product did not receive 5 stars was because of the strain relief issue. Otherwise--it's terrific!

Love it!
I love the functionality that allows me to charge my MP3 player and listen to it at the same time.
