dont think my factory radio has any RCA jacks (cadillac CTS, i posted on a cadillac forum to ask)

ls6tt, no, your radio does NOT have RCA jacks. The adapter in post #6 DOES. It has RCA input, antenna input and antenna output. Remove antenna from your factory radio, plug it in to the adapter's antenna input. Plug the adapter's antenna output into your factory radio. You now have RCA inputs via the adapter. Use the headphone to RCA adapter in post #10 to plug your phone into the RCA inputs from the adapter in post #6. Trust me, it has what you are looking for.

had to modify the antenna wire on my car a bit but it works. quality isnt perfect, and i dont get good reception with regular radio now

but overall im very happy, i appreciate the help.

Glad to hear it works for you. There is a power switch for the adapter. If you turn it off, then your regular radio reception should improve. As fas as modifying your antenna wire, there are typically two types of connectors on the ends of antenna wire. There are adapters available at car stereo stores to convert from one to the other. The quality should be significantly better then a wireless fm modulator, especially in a high congestion signal area.

well i cut the wire and spliced them together for the radio back. I think since i removed the foil there is interference and i need to rewrap them and then I should be good to go.

Ahhh, I should have mentioned that an adapter may be necessary. I did car stereoes in my younger days and it's so common to me that I didn't think to mention it. Sorry 'bout that.
