  • “I came accross your kit while browsing for an cd/mp3/ipod head unit for my wife’s car.
    I absolutely hate static, and fm transmitters are the worst. My wife’s Corolla came with a 6 disk in dash tuner and your kit still works flawless for her.

    Shipping was very Reasonable. A few days and i had it ready to install.

    Installation was EXTREMELY EASY, getting the required tools from the garage (phillips screw driver, 10mm socket and magnet) as well as putting them away took no more than 20 minutes. Your youtube video was helpful, I watched it while my wife was on her 10 min drive home from work and i was done before she decided what she wanted for dinner.

    We both use our iphone 4s. Cables are routed through the back of the upper dash compartment so the cable can be put out of site when not in the car. GTA Car Kit features that I like the most – ease of installation, how well it integrates the ipod and how easy it is to use.

    GTA Car KIt provides excellent value. i already recommend these kits to my friends and ordered 2 more for my mother and mother in law.”

  • “I just finished converting my massive cd collection to iTunes and wanted to be able to use my iPod in my car.

    I own a 2004 Toyota Echo hatchback and didn’t want to upgrade my stereo since there’s really no good place to put speakers in the rear and the factory system is decent. I saw your car kit online and thought I’d take a chance.

    It arrived today and I was able to install it in about twenty minutes…plus another ten minutes while I delightedly bounced around to various songs.

    No special tools, just a screwdriver, and I was all set. I ran the cable from the deck through to my glovebox so the unit can “hide” from would-be thieves.

    Great kit, easy to install and a reasonable price.

    Thanks!!!”

  • “Watched youtube videos about installing iPod cable. Then I realized it was from a shop.

    I had an FM emitter for almost 2 years, results were terrible. With sound clarity from a cable, there was no doubt it was the best choice. If I knew earlier it was that easy to install a cable… I would never had used anything else.

    Shipping was lightning fast.

    GTA car kits video are an absolute necessity because of many models. We watched video for 10 minutes, then it took 10 minutes to do the job without any tool.

    I use iPod classic. For the cable we drilled down an hole at the bottom.

    I really like cristal clear sound (no interference) and controlling iPod with Factory radio.

    100$ for something you can only find at higher prices – yes, I got great value for my money. Should never had bought an fm transmitter.

    Thanks!”

  • My daughter found out about GTA Car Kits on the Internet.
    We tried transmitters, and considered after-market radio replacement. The transmitters worked poorly, especially in urban areas, and radio replacement was expensive and ruined the factory look of the dash. The GTA kits looked simple to install and use.

    Shipping was very fast. (one of the kits wasn’t in stock, so there was a short wait. But then again, it was Christmas…)

    Very easy installation. It took about 15 min to install. No unusual tool were required. The video was a great help both for installation, and as a way to understand the unit before purchase.

    We use iPod Touch. On both cars, the cables were run to the box under the radio.

    I didn’t see anything needing improvement. It’s a well thought out and constructed unit.

    Overall, it was a great experience. I installed them in my daughters cars, and haven’t heard of any complaints. I believe they work just as expected.

    These kits are a terrific value. I know which kit I’ll put in my car when I need an AUX input. (I’m NOT an apple drone)

  • “This product worked awesome. Shipping was fast, price is more than fair and end result was excellent. I installed this unit in an 08 Sienna.

    My first experience with an ipod and stock system led me to change out my entire stock system to a fairly upscaled after market one in my 05 tacoma. Needless to say about 2k into it later, my end result was the same. Great product, Highly recommened. might put some stereo shops under… LOOKOUT!! ”

  • “There were other kits out there, but they all cost about the same (or more) and GTA’s kit had the installation video, which was quite useful. A quick check online didn’t yield any red flags that GTA was disreputable; being able to pay via PayPal helped.

    Shipping was average. Since it was free, that’s perfectly acceptable.

    The installation was very straightforward and took about 45 minutes, although I was very careful and took my time undoing the clips that held in the console and stereo. I did have to buy the tools mentioned in the video, but they aren’t unreasonable things to own and they aren’t expensive. Other than the telescoping magnet, I imagine many people would have or could borrow the required screwdriver, socket and ratchet.

    The installation video was extremely helpful. Without it, I wouldn’t have been willing to disassemble my car’s center console and risk breaking something. It was clearly narrated and paced such that it was easy to follow.

    I’m using a 6th generation iPod Nano. I routed the aux-in cable to the glove box, where I put the GTA adapter itself. I ran the 3.5mm headphone aux-in to the lower console where I can easily get at it from the driver’s seat (although I don’t expect to ever use it, I decided the time to run that cable was when I had the center console detached).

    The best GTA Car Kit feature is its integration with the car’s existing stereo. The stock Toyota stereos are quality units that look like they belong — the backlighting and layout match the look and feel of the instrument cluster and the other controls. The primary alternative to an iPod adapter is an aftermarket stereo. After a few years of keeping an eye out I have yet to see one that doesn’t look gaudy and/or cheap (they all seem to have a horrible mash of colored LEDs and pointless animations).

    It was not immediately clear to me that the adapter would work with the 6-disc CD changer that comes with some trim levels of Corolla, I had to Google a bit to assure myself that it would have the correct AUX input port. I’ve never really looked at the connections on the back of car stereos and wasn’t sure how standardized they tend to be.

    The GTA Car Kit is well worth the money and I’d recommend it to anyone who’d like to retain the look of their factory stereo while adding the functionality of an iPod adapter. It’s also less expensive than most other Toyota iPod adapters or a quality replacement head unit.”

  • “I found your company when I was researching on the net for options for line-in AUX input instead of FM Transmitter. Cable line-In AUX was my only options after trying crappy FM transmitter even with the Monster better quality FM transmitter

    Shipping was pretty Fast within a week during XMAS season.

    Installation was pretty easy with the video no issues so far.

    I am using Ipod Classic 80 GB and I did run the cables tru the gloves box I really like to be able to choose between Ipod cable and only AUX cable

    Would defenitely recommend it to a friend – very cheap option for IPOD/MP3 compared to the $400 Toyota option.

  • Hello,
    I wanted to let you know that I took a chance and installed your car kit on my 2004 Acura TSX, in part because my mechanic thought it would cost upwards of $100 for him to install it. I am not particularly handy and can say that the only things I’ve done to my car are fill it with gas, occasionally check the tire pressure, and once in awhile add windshield wiper fluid. With the instructions that you provided and reading a couple of other suggestions on web forums, I was able to install my kit in just a few minutes (not counting drilling the hole into the storage bin) with only a flashlight and my compact mirror. It works and sounds great—I just wish I’d discovered your kit earlier since I’ve been listening to poor quality FM receivers for four years!

    Thanks for making such a great product so easy to install!
