Alfa Romeo Giulietta BLUETOOTH ADAPTER + DASHBOARD REMOVAL

  • So i was searching for a good instruction video about how to install a bluetooth adapter behind my radio but i couln't find one. So this is why i decided to make one myself and i've added the dashboard removal as well, cus it's an essential part to remove before installing the adapter. So i hope that i can help a few people out with this instructional video.
    WORKS FOR: Fiat and Lancia aswell, if Amazon sold out than Ebay should be the same (check link)
    Adapter: www.amazon.co....
    ATTENTION: IF YOU HAVE THE USB/AUX OPTION, THERE WILL BE NO DUMMY PLUG. So you can choose yourself if you want to unplug it and switch it with the adapter. what you also could do is integrated the wires of the AUX/USB plug into the adapter. it's entirely up to you, so just a heads up!

    Hi, you could add in the description that this adaptor is only suitable for radios without the USB+AUX option, because with this option, you cannot plug the adapter into the radio because there is no 'dummy plug'.

    • @Xalpha
      @Xalpha  3 роки тому

      Ow okay thanks for the info! So you do not have the sat av just the aux and usb input, which causes no dummy plug to be in the radio? What you could do is pull out the plug of the usb and aux and add the wired intocthe adapter or just leave them out, that's entirely up to you. Thanks Brandy!

      I think in that case this adapter does not make sense because there are adapters at Ama*** which plug into the aux and USB ports in the glovebox. There are even some for half of the price of this here.

      This is not true. I have a 2011 Giulietta without nav, but with USB + AUX. I have two seperate plugs, that are connected to eachother with a click & slide mechanism: A grey plug and a blue plug. You can just remove the two plugs from the back of the radio, seperate the blue plug from the grey plug, connect the BlueMusic adapter to the grey plug and insert it back in the radio. Works like a charm

      @Xalpha  2 роки тому

      To answer your first question. The second Amazon.fr link says it does work for a Fiat Punto so i assume it also does for the Grande Punto. You can check the build year at the lower part of the amazon page.
      To answer your second question, yes it does. The adapter is powered by the radio unit which only works if the battery of the car is turned on. This means if you turn off the car, the radio will be turned off aswell as the adapter.

Weliswaar is de adapter die ik er dan ingestoken heb ter vervanging van dit. Wat er dus gebeurd als je deze aansluit is als volgt. Je klikt de nieuwe adapter er in en dan start je de auto als normaal. Vervolgens druk je op de knop media waarbij er dan op de display van de radio staat CD Changer. Dan ga je op je telefoon naar de Bluetooth functie en zoek je Bluemusic. Verbinden en afspelen en zo zimpel is het. Ook werkt de CD speler nog steeds en ook het Blue and Me systeem voor hand free te bellen ook. Daarnaast werken alle functies nog op het stuur en kan je gewoon tracks van je spotify overslaan door de knoppen op je stuur. Volgens mij zit de nieuwe adapter dus in de poort waar de CD player aangesloten is. Maar doordat daar geen kabels voor nodig zijn achteraan is deze dus leeg en kan je deze dus veevangen door de nieuwe adapter. Hopelijk is de uitleg een beetje duidelijk.
