Default Connect MP3 player to Cassette?

I just bought a used 2005 Civic DX with the factory stereo (AM/FM-single CD). I commute over 2hr per day and use my MP3 player alot (audio books, music, podcasts).

I have a button for cassette (which would normal have gone in the slot below the current deck).

I have an FM tuner for the MP3 player, but still get a lot of static and wanted to know if there was a way to wire an audio jack into the deck where the casstte deck would have connected.

I know I could buy a new stereo, but wanted to try the 'cheap' way first.

Any help would be great. Thanks.

you might be able to get an ICE-LINK for your car. not sure, look on google for what model cars they fit. that would sound better than a cassett

cheap way to do it is go through the radio which u have.. but at walmart for like 20 bucks u can get this box that u plug ur antenna in and out to radio so its like what you currently have but im sure less static. its worth a try.
PS. i go to walmart way 2 much lol

yes, just get the cassette adapter for CD players and plug it into the mp3 player (assuming it has a headphone jack )
