my stock radio/tape player doesn't work very well (the tape player
doesn't work, even after numerous cleanings, and the antenna is gone so
the radio reception is poor).  i don't listen to tapes or radio anyway,
so my new plan is to remove it entirely, and plug my mp3 player directly
into the speakers.  the idea is to wire in a potentiometer between the
speaker plugs and an 1/8" audio jack.  that way i can plug in whaterver
potable device i want.  this seems like a good idea to me.  can anyone
think of why it's not, or have any suggestions to make it better or more
reliable (or why it's a bad idea in the first place)?  this is the
cheapest way i can think of to get what i want.

fyi, i'd bring along a portable weather radio on trips for emergency.
