Has anyone attempted to get bluetooth connectivity from the car ICE to a phone that does NOT use the Fiat/Microsoft Blue&Me system?
All I actually want to achieve is having my phone wirelessly (or wired) connected to the car's ICE so that I can play music and sat-nav directions through the car's ICE system, and maybe take calls, but I don't want to use the (incredibly hard to use and unreliable) Blue&Me system.
I'm assuming that the best solution will be a new head unit, with it's own Bluetooth systems. Has anyone managed to connect an aftermarket device to the built in microphone in the dash, and the control buttons on the steering wheel? If so - do you have any recommendations for the head unit? (I'd prefer one with a decent DAB tuner as well if possible).
