Instead of trying to drive the output of the car radio amplifiers, try
this: grab the preamp inputs at the volume control and feed your audio in
from there. Now you can change the volume by tweaking the radio's control,
instead of the Walkman's. Works for any radio. Obligatory Bad Schematic:


---- radio audio -----*   switch (either manual or in the jack)
                         ____________
---- walkman audio----* /            |
                                     |
                                     |
                                     /
                                     \
                                     /<------- to preamp ------
                                     \
                                     /         radio volume control
                                     |
                                     |
