I just got this for my touch:

Out of the box it was complete sh!t. But, after doing some googling on why it sucked so much and reading comments on it, I found out how to fix it. There is a way to set it to "international mode" which lets you change the frequency range. The standard US range is 88.1-107.9, but I can tune my car stereo down to the stations in the 87.1-87.9 range. So I popped it into Japanese mode where I can set it on 87.9 and get almost no static. (Technically I'm broadcasting a pirate radio station at this point, but the range is so weak it doesn't matter) The audio quality is still no where near as good as AUX in, but much better than out of the box.
