    I don't think BT audio can work with the oe system. you're gonna need to add something to the system. try crutchfield to see what they have. I bought an adapter that plugs into the aux port, but you need to pair it each time you get in the car and I needed a ground loop isolator because it hissed so loud. not the best solution but it was cheap.
