I remember excluding cars with CD players from my purchasing decisions for this reason! Should either have a tape or aux in.

This somehow makes me feel older than the hip pain does
I think it'e because of how long ago it was. I feel like society hasn't changed very much since ~2012 (last time this was necessary) so it all feels like one long continuous blur. And then you realize that was 13 years ago.
I have one of those in my car today.
I remember showing mine to a friend once and she straight up was like "Oh wow! I wonder if they make these for CD players instead of cassette tapes."
🤦♂️
I still use one whenever I drive my father's car. It's Bluetooth connected now, which does mean I have to charge it, but since phones removed the headphone jacks... /Shrug
Look at that young whippersnapper. I had one for my discman.
Fuck you I'm not THAT old
Mmmm... did somebody say pudding?
So the thing about these is they always work unless you physically damage it in a completely obvious way and then you get another $5 adapter. You know unlike figuring out how to make your phone talk to a stupid car.
I used to make mix tapes by recording mp3s onto cassettes so I could listen to them in my car.
