USB to Bluetooth adapters?

Hey folks.. So I just wanted to know if anyone out there is using a USB to Bluetooth adaptor that would allow you to fast forward, pause, etc through the standard I drive interface.

There was a thread on the topic a few years ago.. But figure tech may have changed.

Can't help with USB-Bluetooth interface...

But I see you have a '14 - Have you thought about coding enhanced Bluetooth/USB? That's what I did and it works flawlessly.

I had paid bimmertech to code it. Worked great but the dealer just reset with my last service. Don't want to pay again if there is a reasonably priced alternative through hardware.

May head over and see the guy at long island.

Thanks, I sent them an email.

But it sounds like one-one else is using a Bluetooth Adapter on their F30s.
