Title: Aux. alts
Post by: ReeceH13 on May 24, 2013, 05:20:53 pm
Hey all,

I am looking to play music through my phone, first question is, this is acheivable through Bluetooth, how mch for a cheap unit does anyone know?

Cheaper still is it possible to get a cable (if they make one) that goes into the ipod dock, and then into the phone headphone socket??

Any help or other alts would be appreciated

I have an RCD 510 and a 7P6 bluetooth handsfree kit in it and the BT streaming works well, although its not ideal as you cant play/pause/skip like I had hoped. the unit cost me £200, so not that cheap, and an hour or so fitting myself.

Cant say I have tried any other method, although a friend has a cable input on his Audi radio, but I'm not sure how similar it is to the Golf.

Also I guess another advantage to te BT method is you then have a handsfree, which is the main reason I did it.
