How do I get the blue tooth phone to work?

I don't see any menu option on the radio, but I have steering wheel control for it?

Wow, I didn't know they would make a car with controls on the steering wheel that didn't do anything.

There is No menu option for Bluetooth.

Thanks

If you have USB and Aux, check the trunk area (right behind rear seat in space between battery and seat backs) to see if you can see a "box" with the Bluetooth symbol on it. You can retrofit it for less than $50 in parts from dealer.
Search bluetooth retrofit and you will find diy guides.

U can retrofit the bluetooth with a few parts from the dealers for less than $50.
Mainly u need u need mic to go in the overhead console, bluetooth antenna that goes in the kick panel under the steering column, and a wire repair kit to connect everything.

Its simple and takes all of 30 mins.
Search for the DIY guide to do this if you're interested

OK thanks.

Another question, if I install a aftermarket radio will I loose the satellite radio when I put the stock unit back in to sell the car?

Thanks
