So I was looking to purchase a base LS2 car and noticed there is not a USB port for listening to my mp3s.

What are my options for for listening to my music?
- phone or iPod through the 8mm jack?
- burn mp3s to a cd?
- stream blue tooth off my phone?

can a usb port be installed aftermarket?

Get a Bluetooth adapter, search for Bluetooth car kit on amazon, you get it one for less than $20. The adapter will have a car charger, and an Aux cable that you will connect to the Aux port, pair your phone with the device and you are all done. (http://tinyurl.com/nfdw69v)

Get the Belkin one if you need better sound.

There is an aux jack in the counsel to plug your MP3 into

Bluetooth is the best sound quality and bass for me, especially if you have an iPhone. I think it's because there are bass boosting qualities on the phone, as well as in the amp of the car. so like... 2x the base of using an auxiliary cord or USB cable.

So Bluetooth FTW.

Just burn a CD and be done with it. You can load nearly 100 mp3 files on one disc and it only costs a quarter...

This little unit works wonders for me. Plugs into the AUX jack and connects via Bluetooth to my phone for music. The phone works great on it as well.
