So I want to add Bluetooth to my stock single cd radio in my 04. On my radio I have two connectors the one on the right side(if your looking at it from the backside) has a connector on it. Obviously for pores and the radio stuff. But the middle one has nothing. I've read that's for the auxiliary cord that my f150 did not come with. Has anyone put Bluetooth into that somehow? Or can anyone help me put Bluetooth on my radio? If all else fails I found some auxiliary stuff on Amazon... I don't want static!

Bluetooth is a data transfer protocol. What exactly do you want it to do, just play audio from your phone, i.e. music? Sounds like you want to put some sort of adapter on your radio into a possible aux port that may or may not exist, and effectively turn it into a Bluetooth port to stream music from your phone. Am I right?

yeah just music from a app I downloaded. I essentially just want everything that I click on to play normally like it would on my phone. So yeah sound

If you're interested, I put this in my '05 and it works very well. And it's pretty cheap.

$120.00 ain't bad at all. Nice find.
