The 3.5mm jack needs to go in the Walkman, the USB into the car.

Argos sells a personal CD player for £15.99 – while the sound quality using the headphones supplied might leave a lot to be desired, with good quality headphones (the cheap one I bought) the sound is very good.

So for a total layout of just over £20 your neighbour can Bluetooth pair a CD player to the vehicle audio system. But if I were to do this, I’d want to ensure I could power the CD player via the vehicle electrics somehow – because these things tend to eat batteries.

He has a CD player Hymie, a Walkman. That's what I'm trying to connect to the car for him.
Had an answer back from a seller about a Bluetooth transmitter (what I gathered I needed), who tells me that would be the wrong way round. Surely the device sending the audio (non Bluetooth CD player) is the transmitter, arrgh !

That ebay listing for the Bluetooth device clearly shows that it can transmit or receive Bluetooth signals – perhaps the seller does not know much about what they are selling – this is often the case where a Chinese seller is listing hundreds of items on ebay.
