Default Bluetooth Adapter for NON Navi

Hey guys... I am looking for the best aux port bluetooth adapter to stream my music.... I need something with an "auto connect" feature... meaning once paired the first time I never have to pair it again... So it will turn on and pair when the car power is turned on....



Any ideas or links you may have please provide as I have searched local stores like Best Buy and purchased one... but it was the worst purchase ever... lol that POS got returned immediately....

You can do with this member did with his A2DP bluetooth streaming setup as long as you have the AUX jack and the 12V power adapter in the center console.

No problem. If that set up has any of the alternator whine like other members discussed, then look into if your IS has gotten the TSIB for the AUX jack done to remove that noise.

Or an alternative is this thing I have at the moment.

Only drawback is that it has to be powered on manually to start streaming music. One reason why I'm slowly piecing together the setup I posted to you the other day.

This is not an aux adapter, but a bluetooth adapter for the factory radio. Allows for full bluetooth functionality as a phone or a media player. Has the auto connect feature you are looking for. Allows you to answer/reject or end calls by the steering wheel controls. I installed this on my non ML/non Nav factory system and it works flawlessly. This unit also still allows you to keep the functionality of your aux input incase you had a non bluetooth device that you still wanted to use. I've been very pleased with it and have had it installed about 8 months. Hope this helps!
