Do i need a new headunit or is there any way to connect my music from my iphone to bluetooth, usb or aux?
Cheers!
Cheers!
One of the most common frustrations on this forum I think :')
As far as I know, the only way to do it with blue and me is to buy the adaptor jobby which I remember seeing for about £60? I'm unsure of the name of it or where from but someone here will know.
My blue and me is uninstalled and I bought a wire off ebay that goes into the back of the HU for aux input and hit the cd button.
This works 70% of the time, the other 30 it says no source detected despite the cable/ipod being plugged in so it's not ideal.
Personally I would, blue & me when working is ****e imho so you wont be missing out on much, you can pick up headunits pretty reasonable these days there is a company on ebay that offers everything, headunit facia plate leads steering wheel connectors etc.

You can buy an ISO to AUX that plugs into the back of the standard stereo.

Costs no more than £10, well mine only cost £8. Really easy installation.
If you don't have blue and me all you need is a cable and set of radio removal keys. This is a combined set on eBay for less than a tenner.

When I had my GP this is what I bought and with a little fiddling you can pop the wire through the bottom of the dashboard into the little pocket under the radio. It's a perfect place to rest your iPod/phone whilst it plays sweet sweet music.

Ive got blue and me atm so if i fit this cable does that mean that it just wouldnt work? Or will i not be able to fit it if i have blue and me?

You will have to disconnect the blue and me cable to fit that cable in it's place. You will lose blue and me functions but if you aren't using it anyway then it's not a loss. However I'd ask someone that has installed this into a blue and me unit before. when I did it I never had blue and me in the first place
