Bluetooth for car

[blkdodge]

My wife just purchased a 2014 Hyundai Elantra that does not have Bluetooth for phone. I was shopping around and found a lot of devices. Anyone use one that they like with good connectivity and speaker clarity.

I have one of these......Supertooth HD. It works well and will connect to two devices so no only do I have a nice hands free cell phone device but also get my GPS directions from my iPad through it.

The link APT posted is for a KINVO. I have their BTC450 connected to a cassette adapter in my 02 Monte Carlo. Works well with GPS apps like Waze and 'net radio like Slacker or Pandora. I have also popped the tape in when the phone started ringing to answer a call but that does not happen much.

If you have a 3.5mm aux input, then I recommend this one. Over 4000 happy owners. Similar to what lynndiwagon posted.

Or, buy a used car stereo on ebay with blue tooth. The Sony in my Jeep came from Ebay for $40. It has blue tooth, USB, and CD changer control.

I'd second this if the factory radio doesn't have steering wheel controls for the radio or factory XM. By the time you buy the steering control interface and/or XM receiver, it's not a cost effective way to add bluetooth.

does the radio have a USB input for MP3 play
there are BT devices that plug into USB,
trun the radio to the usb input mode
pair phone with the USB BT device

Drop by the Verizon store. They have a real good quality Motorola Roadster Bluetooth for around $100. You just pair it to your phone, and it works GREAT. It comes on when you shut the car door, and goes to sleep when you leave the car. You tell when to call, and simply say hello to answer.

If your radio has an "AUX" jack this one works really good and the price is right also. I've been using it for about a year and am very pleased.

Not wanting to be argumentative but triple check that.

My '13 Elantra had it and it was not a "deluxe" model.

Check Crutchfield.com for a radio that will fit with BT.

Never said it would be cheap, just available!

I use a Garmin Nuvi 3580 & the Bluetooth works well with my phone. If you already have a navigation system or don't want one, switching receivers is probably the best option.
