Just came from Car Toyz here in Houston...I was told since the whole car (inc speakers) is bluetooth and that additional amps cant be added to the stock audio..?? Anyone else heard about this???

Gee. I just had an amp and subwoofer added, and it sounds great.

I guess I better take it out, huh?

 

:lol1: <--- meant for the first post.

 

Gronk....could you tell me what all you added??? I'm just wanting to put a 4 ch Alpine in...also...were there any additional install costs since it's bluetooth compatible???

ummm i dun think an amp needs to be buetooth compatible. doesn't the phone communicate with the head unit? the amp and speakers just output the sound right? if i were you i would take it someplace else and see what they can do for you.

 

wow, i think they just really didnt want to work on your car.

 

So does this mean the speakers are connected to the head unit via bluetooth? That would be kinda cool though. You could just buy other bluetooth compatible speakers, amps, mp3 players and just link them via bluetooth. :toothless

Sounds like Car Toyz doesn't know what they speak of.

 

call my friend Kevin @ Cartoys on dunvall and westheimer..713-278-2334 ask him.. he know what he is talking about. He worked on my remote start alarm, i was also gonna get some jl amp and sub from him so i know u can install an amp.

 

Um, no Bluetooth tomfoolery was involved. I just had them tap into the speker cable that leads to the subwoofer, put an in-line converter on it to bring it to line-level inputs, and plug it into a Pioneer amp that powers a couple of 10" subs in a speaker box.
Of course, the amp had to be powered and grounded. But that's it.

Maybe they get the phrases "add an amp" and "replace my whole head unit" confused.

 

Find another installer.

The "whole car" is certainly not Bluetooth, and BY is only between the head unit and the phone interface.

 

Stay very far away from the stereo place that told you that. WOW....

 

This is another reason why you kids should not do drugs
