Default Looking to play some music in the V of the phone...suggestions

Need some sort of adapter for my windows phone to the v. Getting tired of paying for serius XM. Looking for something with good sound quality and an easy install. I saw the thread with the US spec 15. Not sure if this is only for the iphone? I may use the ipod as well, but would like to use the phone more than the ipod, since I do not have the time to download music and all that crap. I usually just stream of my phone. Someone get me a link as I am sure I'm bringing up some old discussion.

That also has a RCA input that can be used with any audio device

I used the "aux" mod for awhile, combined with a Nokia BH-214 or BH-221, it worked great for BT music & phone calls, not to mention inexpensive (for the cost of the device, $70 + time to do the mod). I'm talking about almost 2 years of that . . . until installing the Parrot Asteroid Smart.

Ear buds. Press play. Done.


I have just a hard wired fm modulator. Works good, easy to install, just have to connect to the antenna, a power and ground, run the cord, mount the switch. You really want to go all out check out heavy's thread.

I've got the PAC 15 or whatever also.

Just get a a/v 2 plugs to 1 headphone jack plug wire from radio shack, no biggie.

I stream iHeartRadio through it, sounds good.

If you are not going to use XM then do this. Easy and cheap.
