Is there a bluetooth adaptor for the stock head unit that can be used similar to the way ford uses sync to stream media NOT for calls I wanna eliminate the aux cord and go wireless..... I know they have fm transmitters but they usually are crappy... Any help would be cool Thanks in advance guys !

This one from Belkin is cheaper:

Both those plug in to the aux jack yes? Or can it be hooked up to the rear of the head unit ?

I can't remember if the BlackBerry unit that I bought included the cable but I used a cable with a stereo plug on each end to go from the unit to the front aux. It would have been just as easy to get a cable that had a plug on one end and two RCA jacks on the other to plug into the audio cable assembly that I already had connected to the rear aux of the stereo. I would imagine that the Belkin system is the same way.

I bought one for the same purpose. I haven't installed it yet, though. You'll also need to buy a usb to usb cable--(same gender on both ends) to power it.

I don't think that is going to work. From what I read the USB port is for charging a device not powering the unit.

It works. I tested it.
