yep - that's what we did - had the cassette adapter that we had previously for our kids when they wanted to play cd's and the car didn't have a cd player - only a cassette player. The cassette adapter also plugs into an IPOD. We pulled it out and use it on our 1996 Goldwing which has the cassette/radio combo. Hubby ran the wire under the seat to the back and I control the ipod while he's driving. Works great!
