Head unit replacement ideas for BT stream

[CTSVbecker]

Hey all I'm new but am poking around.

Just picked up a 12 denali and I wish GM has caught on to Bluetooth streaming.

What's everyone doing about this system? Replacing head unit or what?

Thanks in advance

I thought all 2010+ had BT?

Bluetooth phone yes. Bluetooth as a streaming media player no..not to my knowledge anyway

My 2013 Silverado with a non nav streamed music if I remember correctly but that was a few years ago so maybe I am not remember correctly.

You're not remembering correctly. No bluetooth audio streaming until 2014 pickups and 2015 SUV.

Well Damn, this was the first time I have ever been wrong. My apologies OP for getting your hopes up.

I know it didn't stream. No hopes up. Wondering if anyone has tried a Bluetooth aux dongle or anything.

Or are people just replacing the head unit. If so how do I like it?

Bluetooth stream sucks imo, always cutting out/poor quality...get a thumb drive or better - use the hard disk, or worse case get a mini cable. No way aftermarket will function as well as stock hdd nav.

I used a Bluetooth adapter from Amazon in my 2013 Impala. i hardwired a cigarette adapter behind the dash, then used a low profile 90* bend aux cable to plug into dash. It was low profile and accomplished what I needed.

This is all I needed and ran about $30
