Yes.
If you've got a stereo that cost more than $100, chances are it has an aux input in the back. You can check by pressing the mode buttons on your stereo. If one of the modes is "Input, Aux, MP3, External," or anything similar, it's got the input.
Buy a 3.5mm to component (2.5mm to component cable would be better but incredibly hard to find) and a 2.5-3.5mm adapter. Pull your stereo out, plug the component cable in and coil it through your glovebox or something. Attach the standard headphone jack to th phone through the adapter. Make sure you test it out before putting the stereo back in. You may get just noise in one channel- fix it by unplugging that component and setting your stereo to "mono."
