My 2010 Honda CR-V has a USB connection and iPod/iPhone integration (you can plug in your iPod, and view artist/title and use dash controls). Does anyone have experience with using any sort of Bluetooth adapter with a USB input in their car or other audio setups? I would love to use my iPhone 5 as to play music in my car, but don't want it tethered to the USB input.

In theory i think if could work using a bluetooth adapter.

You'd need an aftermarket bluetooth adapter for your factory stereo. If you have an AUX input you can use a bluetooth audio gateway with a line output. You won't be able to use the iPod/iPhone interface unless you can find a device specifically designed to do so. Something like the Pear might have worked but it was killed off before it got anywhere, IIRC.

Does it have navi? You should probably post it at http://www.crvownersclub.com

You're more likely to get an answer there.
