It's very easy and plug and play. It's not some crappy bluetooth-to-radio dongle that sounds like crap.

Blue tooth Car Adapter YT-BTA, Blue tooth Car Adapter YT-BTA direct from Guangzhou Yatour Electronics Technology Co., Ltd. in CN

It's the YT-BTA-BM4 with the 3 + 6 pin adapter.


For the price of circa $80ish, this is the best bang for buck I found that works with steerwheel controls....that I found. There might be better. But I think this is the best.

You should have wiring in the back, left-side of your trunk, located here.

You might need to dig around for it a bit. But make sure to find the 3 pin and 6 pin. They might be wrapped up in a felt-like wrap.

Yeah, a mic is included on BT adapter. It's how I did it with mine.

Did you check your left rear compartment yet for the 3 pin and 6 pin harness?
