Using iPhone at a Drive In

Our local drive-in is now open for the season, and in the past I have sat outside and just listened to the movies by opening the hatchback on my car. The movies are broadcast on an available FM channel in the area. I would like to be able to just listen to this FM channel thru my iphone, and then i can keep the car door closed, and I will be able to listen thru my headphones. Is there any way I would be able to do this that isn't too costly?

3GS, iPhone OS 3.1.3

The iPhone does not pick up FM. You would need an accessory or you could just buy a personal radio that you could plug headphones into.


I have used a radio the odd time, but thought if I could somehow use the iphone, that would let me take me less piece of equipment with me. What kind of accessory would I need? An FM tuner?
