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

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?

Took some kids to a drive-in for the first time. They LOVED it. It's now the only way they want to see a movie.
