For those with NAV, use something like this Free Shipping-Sprint Anycom FIPO Bluetooth v2.0 Stereo Receiver w/D
I bought a couple about two years back as they were all but impossible to find. Id suggest that you do the same if you find any.
For non NAV equipped cars you will need to use the AUX inputs.

Sweet!!!! I got it to work. Really easy with Non nav and iphone 4s. Just dock iphone to usb and play a song, then open pandora or youtube or whatever, even the iphone gps works, the song will stop and the music from pandora will play..

Well my phone is windows OS. I do know that it did not read me text messages over the radio until I updated it to the new OS (Mango I think). but yea if I get a text it will interrupt the music and tell me I have a new text and ask If I want to read it or ignore. If I say read it will read it to me. It then asks if I want to respond or do nothing. If I say "respond" I can say what I want to reply with and it will read it back to me before texting it. I really like it and it is very accurate.
Have you updated your iphone yet? I would try that. That's one of the things the new Apple OS boasts is voice recognition (on the device).

The only way to stream is the way I listed above. AD2P requires a hardware upgrade which to my knowledge does not exist for separate purchase.
The module works through the ipod interface - you plug it in and it automatically goes into search mode. Scan from your device to connect to it enter 0000 and its connected. You select the ipod source from the HU and fire up Pandora, Slacker etc and start streaming. When you get a call the car will still pick it up and pause the music. Unfortunately you can't skip or control the player from the car controls but I've found its easier using the phone anyway.
I have a paid slacker account and it refreshes every night so I have music cached directly on the phone. I also don't have to worry about a strong wireless signal because the music is stored locally.

and no it does not interfere with phone operation. I can stream music though this adaptor and still make calls over the bluetooth built into the car. but this could however depend on the phone your using. im using iphone 4S.
you also need a rca to mini female jack.

one bad thing about using this is, you have to manually turn on/off the bluetooth adapter. it does auto pair but you still have to power it on/off.

Don't the RCA jacks require the Ebrake to be applied?
In doing some research...I stumbled on this. Anyone with the Ipod cable try anything like this? Not bluetooth, but I think it would allow for streaming/playing music via anything with a 3.5mm output.
