[DeTomaso] Really Cheap SD Slot radio, no CD.

[Will Kooiman]

Thx.

What I really want, though, is one that is smaller, like a 1/4 DIN (if such
a thing exists).  A full DIN is okay, but it feels like a retrofit thing.  I
want one that was made for an iPod/iPhone.

I saw one at a shop I used to use in Dallas, but I didn't get the brand
name.

I've also thought it would be cool to mount a mini iPad in the dash.  That's
going the other way ­ from smaller to bigger, but what I really want is
something that looks like it was designed to work with the iPod/iPhone/iPad
products, as opposed to a retrofit.

Will,

All you need is a receiver that supports Bluetooth, which I have in all of
my vehicles. I have a Pioneer DEH-X6500BT in two of my vehicles including my
Pantera.

Anything you hear on your headphones on your iPhone will come out on the
vehicles speakers via Bluetooth to the receiver (when headphones are not
plugged in). This works with any phone that supports Bluetooth like Android
phones.

The other plus is that a microphone is included that can be mounted on the
sun-visor to make hands-free phone calls. It works better than I thought it
would in a Pantera.

Cheers,

Denny
