Good audio to audio cable?

There's a few different standards for audio inputs in a car.

Which one of these does it most closely resemble:

That should let us give you an informed recommendation on what you need.

On some of the cheaper cables, either there is no strain relief or its cheap molded plastic (think radio shack plugs) that either break or come apart easily. In the car, with the vibrations from driving plus constantly plugging / unplugging and moving things around the cables are bent and moved more often. It's been my experience that cables with cheap or no strain relief tend to break. Also sometimes for whatever reason I've had cables that wiggle a bit when plugged into a female 3.5mm jack. Cheap cables are not necessarily a bad thing... as long as they are not made poorly.

$0.02

If you get an RCA cable and try to fit into a 3.5mm... it wont fit. Vice versa.
