Another member had mentioned about a bluetooth reciever in a another post but for the life of me i can't rememer who it was.
Today i took delivery of the same Bluetooth receiver and after charging it up i gave it a whirl and i'm very impressed with it, very easy to set up i didn't even have to put in the passcode,now i can have the ipod wire free and not sat on the centre console the only thing i need to do is velcro the receiver to the panel under the heater controls.
Whoever it was who mentioned this item i thank you a great bit of kit

Re: Aux/Bluetooth receiver
Trouble is we have found an even better one
Blackberry Music Gateway needs usb power but once paired re-pairs automatically when powered up so no pairing everytime
and found some 10cm 3.5-3.5 cables on Amazon just right length to Aux socket

Re: Aux/Bluetooth receiver
How's it better if you have to have it powered all the time the one i bought once it is charged it will last for 12hrs i get your point that the Blackberry one connects automatically which is easier but all i have to do is tap the connect button on the Ipod and job done.
The Blackberry one does seem to be a bit more money on Ebay.

Then powers up automatically pairing with iPhone or can be connected to ignition power through a suitable
12v>5v adapter
I have the eBay one and got fed up with having to pair each time I wanted to use it, seems not to have a pairing memory
starting music,and sat nav and pairing was just too much in one phone

Re: Aux/Bluetooth receiver
I used to run one of these Jabra Crusier 2 bluetooth speaker phonesin my old bimmer 325 and it was fantastic...it can wirelessly connect to your in car stereo via the fm dial! just like those old school hook ups from the early 2000's. Except with it you didnt have to plug anything into it directly. It has a2dp so it would stream multimedia from my phone, to itself and play it across the fm dial! Was a pretty easy and inexpensive way to manage iPhone/iPod devices whilst on the road
