Bluetooth Music
Hi everyone!
Somewhat new to the forum and have a question. I know... already. Your thoughts/info would be greatly appreciated. I have an '06 BMW 530xi Wagon with factory radio and cd changer (glove box) and no aux port. I'm interested in adding the ability to bluetooth music. Any information anyone can share on if/how this can be accomplished would be great. Thanks! Joe |
I'm in the same boat with our 2006, 530xi. The best solution looks to be purchasing an audio input connector (off ebay or amazon) that will work with your stereo, then re-coding the stereo to turn on the input.
You can then hook directly into the car with an audio cable, or use something like the HTC A100 Stereoclip to plug directly into the port. I have the HTC in my M6 and it works really well. Just realize that bluetooth audio quality is absolutely not as good as plugging directly to the line-in port with your headphone jack. Jose |

Check that thread. I currently just use an aukey bluetooth reciever:
Amazon.com: Aukey Portable Bluetooth 3.0 Audio Receiver Wireless Music Streaming Adapter with Hands Free Calling, Built-in Mic, 3.5 mm Stereo Output for Car (BR-C2): Electronics
but im gonna follow that DIY so the install is sleeker.

Thank for the replies DaHose and Zopp!
These are great solutions. The internal module is really slick. I believe the problem I'll have is that I don't have an AUX port. I wonder if there is a way to leverage the CD changer wiring to add something like these solutions? |
