Want to connect my I phone using Bluetooth

[david_l_perry]

Loving my new (to me) Z4. Great fun. Just back from a weeks road trip over in Europe (France, Germany Swiss Alps)

I use my Iphone as my sat nav and music collection through the stereo on my normal day to day family car, and want to do the same with the Z4

Currently I just have the standard cd player with multi disc changer in the Z4

What options do I have for connecting the phone via bluetooth ?

If I had a standard Aux input I would probably just use that for the music playback, but I cant find one...

I'm sure this must have been asked a lot of times, but I cant find any answers in the search function

Any suggestions appreciated

Ta, Dave

Just to add....obviously I am aware that the existing stereo is not Bluetooth...I am trying to work out best way to get the phone connected - ie an adaptor or new stereo

I bought a Bluetooth adapter for the stereo that replaced the cd changer but tbh if I did it again I'd just fit an aftermarket headunit...

The cheapest option by far though is the aux retrofit but double check it doesn't already have it a few people have had them months before they find the socket it's above where the roof and heated seat buttons are on the down facing surface so you can't see it

I use this and it's brilliant!

I connected a Bluetooth receiver to my AUX lead, paired it with my phone and suddenly my Zed had Bluetooth

Bluetooth receiver cost me less than £5 from eBay and works perfectly!

I went for this in my roadster. Really can't fault it and the unit itself allows me to change/pause tracks as well as activate siri for making calls/sending messages etc.

Works really well.

I went for a Grom BT3, once fitted it's as close to OEM integration as I can imagine is available.
