your need a bluetooth receiver connected to a USB which plugs into your 12vdc connector in your left cubby and the audio jack connected to it. Easy Pesy! Looks like this. You can find everything on Amazon. Don't forget your phone will die, so get a DC USB connector with two USB outlets. I have 2 USB and 2 Cig. Lighter jacks!

Why not just plug the aux cord in the left cubby into your iPhone and stream your phone music directly into the audio? Why use blue tooth at all?
This is easy gunny- If your phone is in the left cubby how you plan on skipping songs or changing type music, changing volume, looking at the phones gps, see who's calling, etc...this way the phone is mounted where you can see it. Of course everything I listed is distractions!Originally Posted by Mastergunny
of course you could just get another audio cable that can reach your phone, and some may want that. I just choose the one less cable look.

I see what you mean!
Is the Bluetooth signal digital and the aux is analog?
In my car the music sounds much better with a memory chip plugged into USB rather than through aux.
I do not have Bluetooth in the car but I think that would be digital (with some conversion???)
Maybe with the I phone you could plug the phone into the usb and get digital. I don't think the Android Galaxy S5 will work trough the usb / it doesn't in my car anyway.
I use the usb memory card on the F6B or Seena Bluetooth to my in helmet speakers.

I have a ram mount on my clutch perch so with bluetooth in can change stations without stopping.
Same here. Just to clarify the original post ask about BT. Yes I have my other AUX input is my iPod Classic in the saddlebag, this gives me plenty of options.
