bluetooth and music streaming for a 02 996 cab

I have a 2002 996 cab that has the standard radio with the cd changer. Wanted to see if anyone had a solution to integrate a bluetooth connection to the iphone that would allow streaming of music from the phone to the factory radio as well as the ability to receive a call hands free.

Parrot is the only device I know. I however replaced my head unit with an Alpine that does what you are asking.

I just ordered a Motorola t505. It's a Bluetooth adapter that clips on the visor. It will support speaker phone and streaming music via fm transmiter. I'll post back with a review.

Both me (in my 996) and my brother (in his 997) have used our Motorola T505 for years in our Porsches and other cars. Works well in any car where the antenna is near the front windshield. Thankfully the Porsche antenna is in the front windshield.

Received the t505. Pairing was simple and streaming to radio via FM transmitter. Sound is pretty good and solves my podcast and mp3 issue.

Just bought the Motorola Roadster 2. Works great and has long usage time between charging.
