Gutley Posted April 4, 2020 Report Share Posted April 4, 2020 The simplest is just a FM transmitter. Can get interference but cheap enough to try without caring if its nit what you want Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mattman42 Posted April 4, 2020 Report Share Posted April 4, 2020 Just a plug in one does the job as @Gutley says. I have one that uses a 3.5mm jack to the phone that was working fine until work upgraded my iphone and it no longer connects 😫 you are welcome to it if I can find it - PM me your address Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This should be transferred to the How to forum. It'll be lost on the 987 forum. @Araf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christopher2110 Posted May 7, 2020 Report Share Posted May 7, 2020 Anyone know if it is the same for a 986? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spicer92 Posted May 12, 2020 Report Share Posted May 12, 2020 It depends on the sockets on the back of your radio. If they're the same as above, then you'll be good to go. The fuse-box may have different positions for the switched live though, so you might need to play around with plugging it into different fuses. FYI a few months on and it still works great. If my bluetooth on my phone is on, it automatically pairs within seconds of the car starting up. You need to turn the volume up a bit more than you do with the radio, but this seems pretty common- the factory fitted aux port on our Polo does the same Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
