My girlfriend just got a new iphone 4s, and for Christmas I'm looking to get her a docking station for her car that will let the iphone play through the car's radio (she doesn't have an aux port) and also as a spot for her to have it for gps and other reasons.

Any significantly good/cool ones? Or any other cool accessories that an iphone user might be interested in?

Thanks guys!

my stereo hookes up with the chord that connects the computer to the phone, and you can control the music/pandora from the stereo deck

Good for your stereo?

Maybe something like this:

That's what I just saw, the window mount would be perfect, except her car doesn't have an aux port so she wouldn't be able to play it through her car's speakers.

Honestly fm transmitters are either awesome or awful. I bought a monster one, and in my old car ( the antenna actual broke off) it worked pretty good. That car dies so i got a new one and it doesnt work worth poo in the new one! So i just spent the money and bought a cheep deck. (like a 100 bucks) Works awesome all the time, and you can get them with bluetooth. But if you dont want to spend that much ( like 200 installed etc) then they have these little cassetes that work like magic.

What kind of car? Sometimes there are aux or RCA ports in the back of stereo and you just have to run them through the dash to where your phone is.

Hmm a pontiac vibe. Not sure what year, but that would be interesting to look into.
