Unable to play songs via Bluetooth

This is what I use in my 2004, it plugs into the back of the radio an allows use of the previous/next and play/pause buttons. Works for phone and music (you will probably have to disable Bluetooth on the radio, or un-pair your phone, and you use its microphone, not the one in the car).

There are several sellers on eBay, and they are also sold on Amazon (more expensive, but easier to return, typically).

 

Also, you can now get Bluetooth plugin broacasting device. Works nicely in my Gen 2. Just tune into an FM station, connect your cell...Set it, then forget it!

You'll have to go the aftermarket route if you want to connect via bluetooth or AUX.[/QUOTE]

 

If you are streaming from an Android device, you can get an app called "Bluetooth Mono", which forces your music to stream through the BT connection normally used for phone calls. I've used it - it sounds positively lousy, on par with the fidelity of a normal telephone call. It is also, as the name implies, mono and not stereo.

 

Thank you very much! I've been streaming from a Bluetooth device (plugged into the adapter) and I need to switch to car Bluetooth when having to answer calls. Inconvenient, yes, but don't want to compromise sound for convenience.

Appreciate your reply.
