Hey all,

I am trying to hook up an ipod to my AUX port on my car but I get tons of noise. Where can I get a ground loop isolator? I have checked futurecrap and bestbuy and found nothing. Any help would be great.

Thanks

They only have ones for RCA's and not the one I need. Ebay doesn't even really have them

Generally Ground Loop Isolators have RCA connections...

Well I have a aux port, then a 3.5 mm wire that runs to the headphone jack on the ipod. I think I found on on ebay http://cgi.ebay.ca/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ih=007&sspagename=STRK%3AME WN%3AIT&viewitem=&item=170099508784&rd=1&rd=1 I am pretty sure this is a fix. It's like weird noise like a bad ground on a amp for your speakers, it whines and as you rev more, the louder it gets!
