Display song names on the OEM headunit – having song or artist on the OEM displays is a big plus as it makes the install look much slicker and it can be helpful if skipping through long Spotify playlists!.For example my kit just now I can skip tracks in Spotify using the knob on the headunit (saves me some embarrassment if a bad song comes on!) Retain steering wheel / head unit controls – again I wanted as ‘ factory’ an application of audio Bluetooth as possible which meant retaining any steering wheel or head unit controls when streaming.Additionally they require more pain to install – I didn’t want to remove any panels or interior if I could help it. For example Parrot kits are good but I just don’t like the look of them inside. OEM or factory integration / looks – I didn’t want anything that looked too aftermarket stuck on to my dash.This has the bonus of not requiring the car to be stripped to pieces when installing! Retain the OEM hands free voice call functionality – I didn’t want to add additional wiring and microphones to the car so I wanted to keep the original hands free system in place.I raked around for quite a while to find the best solution – a few of the features that were important to me were:

Yes – you absolutely CAN retrofit a Bluetooth audio streaming kit to your car to enable music to be played wirelessly. Can I retrofit Bluetooth audio streaming to my E46 BMW 3 Series?

You CAN add Bluetooth audio functionality to your E46 BMW 3 Series easily.Your car may have Bluetooth hands-free functionality, but still NOT have audio streaming.
