I am curious if there are any good solutions for auxiliary input integration for the Bentley Continental GT (2006)?

 

Bentley doesn't sell one??
I have an 09 and it came with it...not sure about 06 though.

It works GREAT in my car.

 

Thank you for your reply. I'll check with them.

 

Marc,

Just curious, what did you find out regarding the Ipod?

 

I actually went with the DICE unit. Just working out some issues with DICE themselves before I finish the install. I was sent the wrong cable for my car twice and the correct one should be coming now.

 

Thank you for the response Marc. I just purchased an 07' CGT Mulliner yesterday and would love the ability to plug in my IPod. Also, I believe the dealer I bought it from said it was Sirius Satellite compatible...is this true?

I have DICE and, while its better than nothing, I am looking for something more intuitive and able to access songs faster. I can only access songs one-by-one and when you have 100 songs in a folder it gets annoying as hell.

 

I think this thread needs a bump from the grave.

I'm tired of using the cd changer. I don't care how I have to select songs I just want to run it off my iphone.

The only thing I found was this DICE device and its discontinued now.

 

Check the other Dice thread as there is another, yet am not on my tabet. Do a search and you'll find it.

 

Here's a link to the other non-Dice unit they say works great

I just recently purchased a blk 05 CGT and have been looking for other solutions. Don't laugh but I've been using a Scosche-FMT4-TFM-Transmitter and it works like a charm. Lol.

 

BlkGT,

FM transmitters do work, but they have a major compromize on sound quality

 

Whilst looking at the BNT KIT I saw this. Not too sure if there are any RCA inputs on the CD changer or headunit as u could just plug this into your iPod.

I have a 2005 CGT and just installed an aftermarket nav and phone upgrade complete with a back-up cam. The installer used a Garmin black box system. It hijacks the screen with the push of a button and provides a typical Garmin Nav system on the factory screen. Control is done with a small RF remote. The box also has inputs for XM satelite radio and real time traffic along with an input for the rear camera that comes on whenever the shift lever is in reverse. The only problem with the real time traffic is you have to access a different screen to see the traffic jams. However, it does announce all traffic issues on the road you are travelling. There is also an input for a 3mm cord that can connect to an iPod or iPhone for music. I have not used the iPod connection but the installer showed me how it works. The Garmin and XM features require separate antennas that the installer hid them above the headliner at the top of the rear window where there is no IR glass coating. Signal strength is excellent.

For my iPhone he installed a Motorola system that uses Bluetooth to connect my phone to the factory sound system. The system turns off the radio when a call comes in and announces the number. Unfortunately it cannot access the phonebook in my phone but does store 20 numbers that can be accessed verbally. I can access the phone book through my phone and when I hit "call" on the phone the car system takes over.

Very handy despite the short comings. Total install was about $3000. Worth it in my opinion.
