Yes. I am looking at one right now...I purchased this
little device and plugged the output of my computer's
sound card into it. There is a little knob on its
side which allows you to select any frequency between
88 and 108, and a retractable antenna. Now, I can
listen to my mp3s anywhere in my apartment that there
is an FM radio! (I also soldered two wires to the
battery terminals and use a power supply to drive
it....though when I initially got it I just slapped in
a 1.5V AA battery and it lasted over 6 months with
regular use.

Yes again. it has a stereo input jack, 1/8". You can
buy cassette walkmans for about $10; Discmans for $25,
maybe add a cigarette lighter plug for $10. So, you
see, a whole system can be put together for $50 or
$60, and NOTHING on the car is butchered up. There is
also a screw conveniently located below the radio at
the bottom of the dash where a 12V power plug can be
added, so you don't have to reach all the way over to
one of the door cigarette lighters for power.
