Default iPOD FM transmitter suggestions

I used a Monster I-Carplay adapter and I get a bunch of static in my S2k. But when my friend uses the same exact adapter in his Acura TL, it works perfectly fine.

Are there any iPOD fm transmitters that will work well with our s2k's? Or do s2k's and fm transmitters not mix?

I hate FM transmitters, worthless if you ask me, get a stock radio Ipod adapter or aftermarket head unit w/ Ipod hookup capability, sound quality is infinitely better!

Don't mix basically. I have tried Monster, Belkin, Apple ETC...they all suck your best bet is to get the adapter that they sell at best Buy. I think that its called I car play? I dono. Its hard wired though

One think you may want to try is, locate it closer to the FM Receiver Amp. It is behind the stereo, nicely tucked away. Like Kekoa's balls

Only place I've used them is when I drive in the mountains/canyons where there is little reception for any station. Other than that, it's too difficult to find a completely empty frequency to tune into. Hardwire is the best, preferably with a aftermarket head unit that takes over the ipod volume control.
