Default Bluetooth Head Unit

Howdy Ya'll new here and just wondering if any of you know about a head unit that I can sync my iPhone with and play the music over bluetooth. My brother has a adapter that lets him do but he can't charge his phone at the same time. Any help would be much appreciated.

Check out Parrot.com for Bluetooth kits.

For iPhone/iPod/iPad Dock Connector kits + RCA inputs, try the USASpec.com -- that is what I have on both my Camaros to the Monsoon CD Changer port. Add the ProClip vehicle mount with dock connector, and you have some great integration...

I wish I found a kit that did all of the above, but none seem to exist.

^ Yea, but don't you have to replace all your speakers too?! There's the hidden cost, and what about an amp?!

No you dont need to replace the speakers. You dont need an amp.

^ So you must not have had the Monsoon before then, right -- you had the Delco one?

I have delco but ive also done plenty of monsoon camaros. Most cars come with oem amps that are easily bypassed with a module of or without. Monsoons dont need a module. Not only will you have more control but almost all aftermarket hu have a better built in amp than oem ones. Unless you have a really fancy premium sound system like the 2010 camaros aftermarket will be better without need for an amp.

Scoche made a module for the Bose amp which I used previously on my '95 3.4L, but I am unaware of one for the Monsoon -- do you know of one?

I have never looked into seriously replacing my Monsoon, but I do need a sub in my 'Vert since in Chevy's infinite wisdom, they didn't include the subs that the coupe had. I don't buy that there was no place to mount them -- they just got lazy instead of creative. My coupe sounds much better with the 2 subs. *sigh*
