Hey Everyone so I decided to buy a bluetooth adaptor that plugs right into my aux port in my arm rest. Its pretty sweet. I use this for my iphone and bundled it with mod my nav setup.

So here's how it works. Litle bluetooth adaptor gets charged via USB which is also there so plug it in, Once its on and running all i do is pair iPhone to it, select video output from mod my nav which is plugged into glove box with a iphone video adaptor and that's it. I can stream netflix, and anything i want via this bluetooth. Plays nice, audio is crisp.

Cost $40 on Amazon.

You can also use this to stream tunes or whatever from any device that has bluetooth capability. I like it alot, it was nice to run the cable to the glovebox and have to hack as Modmy Nav suggest.

thanks everyone!

I have the same thing in my car. Only downside I found was that the bluetooth stream, while clear and clean, produces low volume output. Other than that, it's amazing! I'm using Griffin's BlueTrip, I don't know about yours.
