It depends how handy you are with a soldering iron. You could always
remove the radio take off the cover and fit yourself a line in to the
amp in your stereo. You would have to locate the point where the audio
is fed into the power amp section of your radio, break the tracks at
this point and fit a change over switch and a 3.5mm stereo jack.
You could either break in before the volume control, allowing you to
use the volume control on the radio, or after which would mean you'd
have to use the volume control/headphones out socket on your MD. I'd
reccommend breaking in before the volume control to avoid excess noise
getting into the amp.
This used to be a fairly simple operation when radios had analogue
(pot) volume controls, as you could interupt the circuit at this
point. It could be slightly more tricky if your radio has a digital
volume control, but could be done with the relevant service manual or
IC data sheets.
This may seem like quite an extreame approach, but its the only way
you will get decent sound quality.
Cheers

We've all discovered that FM modulators are no good. So I'll reverse the
question: is there an affordable option to play MDs from my portable
(R37) in my car, which has a factory CD player only? (I have no CD
changer controls, BTW.)
