Bolero Radio adding bluetooth

Featured Replies

Hello Guys,

 

I have Yeti 2012 (April) and there is Bolero radio with "Phone" option, unfortunately there is no bluetooth option available, which means i cannot stream my music or use phone.

Any recommendation which options i have to add the bluetooth option which will allow me to stream my music also?

 

Thanks a lot!

Do you have a 3.5mm jack in the box between the seats?

I have the AUX connector

That might just about give you music streaming, but will be useless as a phone connection. You'd be better off fitting an OEM Bluetooth kit which will give you phone, Bolero integration, music streaming etc.

I'm not sure which would be best as there's a good few available, but someone will know based on your phone model etc.

Thanks!

I have iPhone 7, so i'm looking for something that i can streaming my music via BT and also phone.

 

Any other option?

 

Do you want a cheaper option or just another option? The OEM kit will do what you want, doesn't really take much fittting, and isn't overly expensive. I'm not sure there's any other solution really other than replacing the head unit for something with Bluetooth built in.

If you can provide me both cheaper and another option beside replacing the head unit, if you can recommand also on a head unit (depends on the price) then i'll consider that also.

 

Again, I'd simply go with an OEM Bluetooth kit. It does what you want, and I can't comprehend why you'd look anywhere else really. If you want something cheaper or less effective for your needs, I'm not sure I can suggest anything.

So the eBay link above should be able to give me what I’m looking for, if I understood you correctly?

Nothing has changed since I told you that little device will not do what you require.

Are you simply going to keep asking the same question til someone tells you what you want to hear?

Could you please provide me the link for OEM Bluetooth kit then?

Government committee of mp,s want to BAN hands free phones (Bluetooth)

I know most of them are well-intended but what about also banning:-

- any touchscreen with or without haptic feedback. Includes jumbo and double screens.

- any form of web access

- in ear headphones 

- any sat nav display that isn't directly behind the steering wheel or HU projected

- texting (oh hang on...)

 

That should mess up most car manufacturers until fully autonomous 'cars' arrive.

 

 

Something else they haven’t thought about!

And, of course, ban all squabbling children from cars. Recently backed into by lady parking with car full of children, no real damage done and she apologised “the children distracted me - you know what it’s like!”. 

If you banned everything that could conceivably be a distraction from cars there would be very few on the road and accidents would increase because of drivers bored out of their minds.

 

One thing I would welcome comments on is how drivers would work with self-driving cars. As I understand it the self drive system would hand back to the human driver in certain emergency situations. Tell me how is a driver supposed to go from being a passenger to a fully aware functioning emergency situation driver in a split second? Psychologically that’s not possible - as Google etc. are finding out when the “driver” in their experimental self driving cars fails to prevent an accident. Just not possible. So how will they work in real life???

Exactly. Here in Milton Keynes we have lots and lots of roundabouts. Lots of people pulling out when they shouldn't, people dicing for gaps, foreign lorries going all the way round in the left lane when they are lost etc. I have close shaves every other day.

 

Until all cars are connected to each other and there is no mixing with normal, older vehicles, it will be either carnage or gridlock:-

 

- Parameters will mean cars will stay stopped and other cars will rear end them.

- Autonomous braking (from my experience) and steering will have too many false triggers.

 

Just my two penneth !
