I pulled the schematics for my car's ('91 Maxima) stereo, and with a
little bit of experimentation, I ended up wiring up the aux connector on
the back (for use with an add-on cd player) into a pair of RCA jacks.

If your stereo has some kind of funky unused connector on its back (or
it's used for the CD changer), the odds are that three of those pins are
L/R/Gnd, and a little bit of experimentation will tell you what (or
wiring schematics like I did).

The quality I get via that line-in feed is vastly superior to a cassette
adapter or even an fm modulator.
