Where are the Radio and Bluetooth units located?

[zamir]

Is the radio unit located behind the NAV screen, or is it one of the units in the trunk? Am also looking for the bluetooth unit. I have an 05.

Thanks

You mean Radio Tuner? They are both located in the trunk, left hand side. The bluetooth is either above or underneath the Navigation Computer.

Thanks. Other than the CD player and NAV, i see a couple of smaller boxes. Will take a look tomorrow.

I found the bluetooth below the NAV & CD player, and the amp is behind the bluetooth module, but i still cant find the radio tuner. I looked under the tire, and found a round drum above the battery with wires comming out of it, but no radio unit. I must be blind, but i just cant find it. Can anyone tell me the exact location and how to get to it?

Thanks guys.

The radio tuner is next to the battery toward the rear of the car.
