Bluetooth A2DP to line in (3.5mm trs) audio adaptors?

I'm finding that plugging my line-in cable to my phone every time I get in my car is getting to be an annoyance.

My line in jack and aux 12V power outlet are actually inside my console, so it would be ideal to get a bluetooth audio adaptor and just keep it hidden in the console.

I know that Blackberry makes one, which uses a Micro-USB port for power which is great because I can use my existing phone car charger to power it up.

Belkin makes one as well, but I'd have to carry a separate power adaptor.

Does anyone know what other options there are out there? And if they are available with FM transmitters (In case I wanted to use this in the wife's truck, which doesn't have a line-in port)?

He's looking for something that can plug in his aux port and power outlet that receives a bluetooth signal so he can stream music from his phone via bluetooth.

I actually wouldn't mind having the same thing.

Sony Ericsson back then had the MW600 which should work since it uses a 3.5mm out. so just get a 3.5 to 3.5 cable and plug it in the mw600 and ur aux in and problem solved

This is what you're looking for:

Genius HS-905BT Voice Clip Bluetooth Headset (Rechargable) - GENIUS - GN-CEHS-HS905BT

I use a similar one different brand.

Thanks guys. I ended up getting this Tune-Link thing from Future Shop, which I'm going to return for the Blackberry Music Gateway:



It works good for bluetooth music streaming into my Aux port, but the FM transmitter sucks and apparently you can only change the transmitter frequency with an Iphone/Ipad app (I don't own either). Also the USB port won't charge my blackberry for some reason.

So pretty much the 2 features that makes the Tunelink twice as expensive as the Blackberry Music Gateway, are completely useless to me.
