Wireless Bluetooth audio streaming with great quality!

Oh and it can be used to charge your phone too.

That thing would drive me nuts being upside down like that. What did it cost you to do?

The unit is 61 bucks. Took me 10 minutes to install.

I will probably paint over the belkin label and then it won't be upside down

Is this the one (Model # F4U037)?

I'm also curious how this is mounted/wired. Were any mods necessary to get it so cleanly installed?

That's the one.

The charger is plugged into the cigarette lighter area (because it powers on and off with the car). The aux cable is wired from their under the center consol to the aux input behind the cup holders for Series 2.

The kit comes with an aux extension cable to make the run.

The only thing you need to remove is the shift **** and plastic panel from cup holders to cigarette lighter area. It's just held in by a couple clips.

Did you have any particular difficulty getting the wire out into the center console area behind the cupholders? Glancing at it just now, I didn't see anything obvious, but presumably the cable is pretty thin.

Looking at your picture, I see where you ran the wire above the flap to the cigarette lighter (and presumably on to the aux jack as well). I'm surprised it fit, but it does look nice in the end.

Anyway, thanks for posting. I've been considering getting a bluetooth for my SII, and this looks like a really clean, well integrated option.

How is the sound quality for phone calls? Some of the reviews looked a little iffy there.

Too bad the SI doesn't have bluetooth. I need something like this for my car.

Nicely done, but its upside down...lol

Hmmm are you sure? Lol

Like I said. Nothing paint can't fix.

Monchie usually doesn't have much to add to a conversation. He just mimics what others have already said.

Looks nice n clean though. I need to look into this.

Can you change tracks easily using that pod? I got warned by the NYPD about having my iPhone or any "internet-connected" device in my hands while driving.

Luckily he gave me a break when I told him I was just changing tracks.

Yes. Press once to play/pause and twice to skip.

monchie

Tru 2 dat.

Thanks. I'll be placing an order today (if I don't like the iPad 3 announcement.) :D

^^ just curious but did the announcement impress you? It doesn't look any better than the 2 IMO.

I love my iPad 2, and hated the fact that other tablets had a higher res screen. Now that the screen resolution is so high, I expect to be really happy.
It does kind of suck that such a high-res device is running iOS instead of something more robust, but it didn't stop me from picking 2 up.

1 for me, and 1 to make a small profit when supply dwindles in a few days.

Also, I love Android, I am not an Apple fanboy. My Galaxy Nexus is the best phone/device I've ever owned.
