  • Bluetooth with new head unit

    Hi all does anyone know if the cars original Bluetooth can still be used after replacing the head unit with a JVC DAB radio?

    or does anyone have and wiring diagram for the back of the original radio, I want to find out which of the original wiring is for the Bluetooth ?

    thanks for any help

    I believe the bluetooth is integral to the radio. Surely any decent aftermarket radio would have this.

        Is blurtooth a kind of fuzzy version of bluetooth?
        Does it blur the sound?

            Nope, as Cyclone says the Bluetooth unit in the DS3 is really just an extension device from the original radio set-up.

              My head unit and Bluetooth seem to be more that enough for the car, I have been down the huge sub route but I don't think the ds3 with the top sound kit (can remember the pack name) needs anymore power or features.

              Unless you have the basic unit, I would not change it.
