The car kit for the K750i can connect to your car speakers to be used as a music player.

@juiceme...
A cradle in itself does nothing other than hold your phone.
Obviously you'd need a 'Full' plug in carkit - not a BT or plug and play carkit to do this. If you wanted to play music through all the car speakers (4 speakers I assume), you would have to send the sound through the Headunit Audio Input, this means the headunit needs to be turned on to amplify the low voltage (2-5V) AUDIO IN signal to a high voltage (12V) SPEAKER output signal.
Otherwise you'd need to run speaker out wiring from the carkit to each individual speaker which is just dumb and would sound like crap.
The HCA-60 carkit (K750i / W800) has an optional wiring accessory kit to connect to your head unit to play MP3's, though this has ISO plugs on it to plug into typical European style stereo's. You could remove the ISO plugs and solder it to your non ISO wiring if necessary...
Another member said he'd been playing MP3's from his K700i in his carkit through his car stereo for some time but I've never seen this done before and don't know the details of what headunit/carkit/wiring modifications he was using. The point is, it is possible - apparently.
