Bluetooth kit?
I have a REV radio (with the front aux ports) and would like to add the OEM bluetooth kit. Does anyone have a list of parts I need? I ideally would like the version that had the microphone & call buttons built into the mirror so I would need the mirror assembly as well.
I assume though old this works like any other modern hands free kit where radio playback pauses, I talk through the microphone and hear the person's voice through my speakers? Thanks! |
About as many replies as I expected to get :(

My '05 came standard with the bluetooth system. It is ok. Not great, ok. I think for the money (significantly less) you would be happier with a visor mount bluetooth device or similar. My son has used one for a number of years and it has worked well. Calls are clear, no "yelling", the device downloads his contact list, voices caller ID for incoming calls etc. The Pacifica is my Wife's car, and if necessary she prefers to use her Jawbone earpiece.

Here is a representative visor device. |
I'm not sure the actual designator for the radio, but I have the full CD changer, DVD player with video screen and headphones and integrated navigation and the video/audio input ports. It does use the radio speakers and mirror buttons. It is the U-connect system.
Again it does work ok, responds to Siri etc. I just think that the overall voice/sound quality, ease of use and features are likely exceeded by a current technology aftermarket device. Just an opinion. Happy to try and give you more info if you press on. |

That helps a ton! So that is a regular radio then w/o the navigation built in. Does the caller info appear on the screen where the song info normally does?
Thanks! |
