Fantastic idea. My car doesn't have Bluetooth, but it does have the auxiliary plug and I hate all the wires. This will perfectly hide in the center console with no wires hanging out. Thanks so much.
What I did was buy a module that plugs into the CD Changer port at the back of the console. Now I have just bought a Bluetooth receiver (not sure if I will take out the battery though).
Thing I've found with the tape deck adapters is you usually get what you pay for, so keep that in mind. Cheaper ones usually have shoddier audio quality, at least in my experience.
i bought a usb bluetooth receiver for like 3$, its cheap and fragile, and i might end up changing it to one of these when it fully breaks, but so far, the bluetooth connect works great, it only disconnects when i get a bad bump, because the usb port is about ready to fall off the circuit board..
you can also get a bluetooth fm transmitter it connects to your cigarette ligther and recieves the bluetooth signal from your phone ect.. and transmitts it thru your cars fm radio.. ive seen some go for under $20
wanna cleaner wire trick? all you need is aux and some type of solder. you have to take out radio and open it. find spot where is that tape reader. there must be 3 wires. left . right. ground for tape input. cut or just solder your cable on it. now you can run cleaner wires ;)
3 months late but it's connected to a 12v slot in your car (the one those cigarette lighter's use) and it has bt and fm built in so you're done. Just connect your phone to the transmitter and it shows which frequency to tune your radio in to. Downside is some of these have a worse quality than actual bt receivers.
how about step it up and solder the aux into the audio unit circuit board tape line in. Then stick the bluetooth device inside the the audio unit powered with a 5 v reg attached to the units 12 v power supply.
Music CD's may be still alive but that will probably last for not so long anymore. PC has like no more need for CS's because you can get everything from the internet and boot from USB which is faster!
if a bluetooth fm transmitter is anything like an aux fm transmitter, the quality is not good! I can get CD quality (320kbps) through a module i plugged into my cd changer port, and with the bluetooth module...I think it would be a bit less than CD quality but still high quality. but with an fm transmitter, you are talking crap quality. Maybe 128kbps at best.
I have been fooling around burning CDs for 4 years and wasted an enormous amount of time. Luckily my antique stereo also has a cassette player. Thanks for the wake up call. I am considerably smarter than you though. I paid $2.49 for my adapter, including delivery!
A Bluetooth FM Transmitter for about $10/15 dollars is a much cheaper and simpler option and the quality of sound isn't shit like some would have you believe. Just find the best frequency and it'll be fine. Fuck spending $70+ and messing around cutting cables, removing batteries, gluing etc. What a waste of time and money!
So instead of building this, I would just plug my phone into the tape player aux. Why would I want to use Bluetooth and make my phone die quicker? And don't say cuz of the Iphone 7 not having a headphone jack, because it's cheaper to get the adapter then to buy both of those... but thats just my opinion..
Could it be possible to just keep the Bluetooth receiver plugged in so it overcharges leaving it to rely on being plugged in at all times, don't really want to risk fucking it up
How old are we talking about here? I have a 1998 Honda accord. It does have a CD player but the laser is broken but it doesn't have a power charging thing. It has nothing.
He is using a soldering kit to remove the battery. The device he is holding heats up the metal that is keeping the battery connected to the bluetooth receiver and separates the wires.
Good job mate as I'm searching through RUclips looking for videos in learning it's not the best one I've seen the best one I've seen so far as I search was one that was hardwired into the factory radio it was into a caset dick but I have Australian car that is a bit of a classic and it has a 6 thakur CD thank you for your video as I shall keep looking for one that plugs into CDs and I will be hard wiring it into the car but it will not be seen it looked like a factory unit thanks for sharing
Yo thanks a lot dude I did this and now my Bluetooth won't work. The light will turn on but the Bluetooth won't work. It worked perfectly fine until I took out the battery. Thanks for the advice advice jerk. I'm boutta sue you for $11.99 plus tax buddy be ready
Aren't you over complicating it a bit? Wouldn't it be simpler to just insert the cassette adapter and just plug the jack into your phone and forget about Bluetooth? Just an idea.
why didn't you buy the Bluetooth that tunes into your radio .Walmart sells them for 20 bucks and hooks up in 10 seconds how long it take for you to do that probably an hour lol
Why would you destroy the battery charge capability? what about when your phone battery starts dying? seems like a hassle. that's just me good vídeo though.
Tapes aren't dead and I'll give you 13 reasons why.
TheBossom those was the last 13 tapes now they dead

dude your videos are amazing and that static jam was fire!!!
You know there's a cassette adapter with bluetooth integrated? It's called iOn, and makes it easier than building that, but still - nice video! :)
Just checked it out. Very cool! However.. compared to this, it is very expensive (74.01 Australian $) and not many people would buy it :/
it also needs to be recharged every night...
the problem with using the cassette player is it's VERY low quality. you need to completely bypass it.
What about if you have no tape slot and just a CD one?
Get the car adaptor that emits FM frequency so you use your car radio to connect to your phone.
TheBlackCat1997able isn't the sound on fm adapter bad and choppy?
Jassiel Quintana No, perfectly clear :)
What I did was buy a module that plugs into the CD Changer port at the back of the console.
Now I have just bought a Bluetooth receiver (not sure if I will take out the battery though).
not true, at times there is static.
Also the new iPhone has a different port.
Thing I've found with the tape deck adapters is you usually get what you pay for, so keep that in mind. Cheaper ones usually have shoddier audio quality, at least in my experience.
Good Day, Please how to modify this BT to automatically power on when car start ? , !! Not by pressing button !!
This is really smart..good job man!
pretty sweet hack dude !!!
this is dope because I'm not good at taking apart a bunch of shit in my car and possibly breaking it 😂😂
that is so awesome ! I'm definitely going to use that for my grandfather's old car it will really enhance the driving experience thanks @jlaser
I like the idea to remove the battery, can you describe more about removing the battery? especially the rewiring of the circuit.
Great work bro!!
the problem with this method is if you at least half decent speakers in your car you'll notice the low quality bit rate due to the tape
i bought a usb bluetooth receiver for like 3$, its cheap and fragile, and i might end up changing it to one of these when it fully breaks, but so far, the bluetooth connect works great, it only disconnects when i get a bad bump, because the usb port is about ready to fall off the circuit board..
Them editing skills tho
you can also get a bluetooth fm transmitter it connects to your cigarette ligther and recieves the bluetooth signal from your phone ect.. and transmitts it thru your cars fm radio.. ive seen some go for under $20
Good idea except for one thing you should never ever use one of those cheap USB cigarette lighter Chargers they can ruin the computer in your car.
Always appreciate ur work

Try an FM Transmitter, bluetooth if you don't have an AUX port and no need for usb power, as it runs off the 12 Volt plug in your car.
good luck with changing fms while driving in highway a hundred of kilometers...
Since you removed the battery, do you have to pair the Bluetooth every time you start the car?
great video!
so you have to press the button on the bt module every time you start the car?
very amazing video!!!!🖒🖒
What's the name of this song?
Nice video :)
You can get a AM/FM Bluetooth transmitter for like 10 dollars
casey neistat type of feel
Czar Salad
is getting old real quick
HELL YEA THATS EXACTLY WHAT I THOUGHT
I had to drop a like cuz this is the same setup I have in my '01 Tl.
Do you know of any method similar to this if your car doesn't have a casette deck?
Is there a similar set up but for a CD player?
Tamuno-Opubo Cookey-Gam no
3:23 what a move... 😁
Can i just rip the battery out the reciever or do i have to use a soldering gun??
The tape adapter doesn't work with tape decks that have the skip option. You have to hardwire to the motherboard.
can you Bluetooth an 8-track?
I have something similar to this on my Mercedes but I got it cheaper and it's actually really cool.

Not sure if Ive done something wrong. Removed the battery however the unit doesn't fully power up and shuts off fully within 3 or 4 seconds.
Or you could get a Bluetooth FM transmitter for $15 which is a single car charger
subway5411 yeah thats what I have and it works really good
Where/ which exactly? Thnx
Cody Herman 792 how long before charge is needed? Also where is it suppose to be connect? Tape deck or Aux ?
I buy mine on wish for 10 € and it work perfect
3 months late but it's connected to a 12v slot in your car (the one those cigarette lighter's use) and it has bt and fm built in so you're done. Just connect your phone to the transmitter and it shows which frequency to tune your radio in to.
Downside is some of these have a worse quality than actual bt receivers.
Will it work properly if i didn't remove the battery?
I purchased a similar Bluetooth device to use it on AUX. it worked well, but it is not charging now, any idea how to fix it?
one thing you could do is leave the cords alone and mount it to the dash that way you don't have to reach down to mess with it
how about step it up and solder the aux into the audio unit circuit board tape line in. Then stick the bluetooth device inside the the audio unit powered with a 5 v reg attached to the units 12 v power supply.
Shtoops27 lol. True. However most folks want something simple. They don't want to "risk" tampering with system wires.
What's the name of the intro song ?
Manuel Medina It's in the description. Sounds like a sample of "Let Me Be Your Angel" by Stacy Lattisaw.
Thanks!
i have headset bluetooth and i need conecting on my aux cable but i dont want bay any think
After I did this to my mpow bluetooth receiver I only have music playing out of 1 of my car speakers very quietly and a hum noise. Any idea why?
never heard about solder and shrinking tubing?
i looooove radio
should have connected it inside the radio
"CDs and Tapes are dead. fuck no"
tapes mostly are, but CDs are not
no
Music CD's may be still alive but that will probably last for not so long anymore.

Calvin K some products still comes with cd to configuring them or as an instruction manual
Al-Bader Bu-Hamad yeah but you are always better off getting the manual/drivers/etc online because they are up to date 😊
How do you correctly remove the battery
nice life hack
How did you learn to do stuff like that
can you make easy air tank
They sell that phone to cassette at any dollar tree
Bluetooth fm transmitter. No wires needed at all.
I know
if a bluetooth fm transmitter is anything like an aux fm transmitter, the quality is not good!
I can get CD quality (320kbps) through a module i plugged into my cd changer port, and with the bluetooth module...I think it would be a bit less than CD quality but still high quality.
but with an fm transmitter, you are talking crap quality. Maybe 128kbps at best.
Can you explain the cd changer hack
watys the song mate
My car still has the old OEM vinyl record player installed in the dash.
or you could just get a cheap fm transmitter, but this way is a lot more fun cx
Is that a 2002 jetta?
man ty big boii
Smart guy
what if i just plug the aux in my phone which takes 2 sec
this is for cars that dont have an aux
amazing
do you live in Germany? because you have a volkswagen
I live in India here also we have Volkswagen
Volkswagen is literally everywhere
I thought it too because of the Euro money then i saw it right
I'm in canada and I have a 2002 volkswagen passat wagon

Gotdamn hackers... luv u guys... lol
Won't u just buy a Bluetooth transmitter? There's one for 5$ lol
SoFaKinG Co_OL shit quality through the AC Adapter using a tape would be best. regardless.
So instead of building this, I would just plug my phone into the tape player aux. Why would I want to use Bluetooth and make my phone die quicker? And don't say cuz of the Iphone 7 not having a headphone jack, because it's cheaper to get the adapter then to buy both of those... but thats just my opinion..

Could it be possible to just keep the Bluetooth receiver plugged in so it overcharges leaving it to rely on being plugged in at all times, don't really want to risk fucking it up
the process is very simple but having all that stuff around seems like a bit of a hassle, why not just play it through your phone?
Because it isn't very loud and if you have your windows down you can't hear your phone.
jep and some people want to hear the bass
Is this a troll comment to summon the sound nerds?
How old are we talking about here? I have a 1998 Honda accord. It does have a CD player but the laser is broken but it doesn't have a power charging thing. It has nothing.
will the Bluetooth receiver work with an aux cord I was thinking about mounting it on my dash
Tyler Pinson yes
now if only the tape deck stops spitting the tape adapter out. . anyone know how to fix that annoying problem?
surebrec dnuoh yes you have to remove the spindle that changes the tape from side A to B
Can someone tell me why it's smokes when he removes the battery cables?
He is using a soldering kit to remove the battery. The device he is holding heats up the metal that is keeping the battery connected to the bluetooth receiver and separates the wires.
so i cant just like pull out the cables, would i have to use a soldering kit?
Daphne Chu
yes you can but you will probably break something, try to cut the wires that hold the battery
my car has no tape player :(
e
Holy sheit m8, how old is ur car? :D
Danny K. Shamo My car is about 15 years old and it has no aux and no tape player
The Dope Drifter my car is 11 years old (2006) and has no aux or cassette
Bluetooth FM transmitter
I have a Mercedes Benz 300sl from 1986 does anyone know how can i do it?
dollor tree has tape decks for 1$
Good job mate as I'm searching through RUclips looking for videos in learning it's not the best one I've seen the best one I've seen so far as I search was one that was hardwired into the factory radio it was into a caset dick but I have Australian car that is a bit of a classic and it has a 6 thakur CD thank you for your video as I shall keep looking for one that plugs into CDs and I will be hard wiring it into the car but it will not be seen it looked like a factory unit thanks for sharing
best and cheapest way... no
most creative... yes
all you needed was the cassette adapter to play your music of your phone why even bother with the blue tooth
TRUE! Unless you have an iphone then there is no aux
Dude your video, funny
If the phone is right next to the Bluetooth adapter you might aswell just plug it in
What if you don't have a cassette player in the car?
👌
Only reason someone might do this route is because their phone doesn't have an Aux. iPhone 7 (cough, cough)
Can I have the Bluetooth receiver
why couldn't life be like this!!!
If you have aux port, just buy Bluetooth transmitter..
the outlet in my vw doesn't turn off with the key... and also my cassette adapter sounds like shit lol
Yo thanks a lot dude I did this and now my Bluetooth won't work. The light will turn on but the Bluetooth won't work. It worked perfectly fine until I took out the battery. Thanks for the advice advice jerk. I'm boutta sue you for $11.99 plus tax buddy be ready
Mike williams 😂😂😂
Aren't you over complicating it a bit?
Wouldn't it be simpler to just insert the cassette adapter and just plug the jack into your phone and forget about Bluetooth?
Just an idea.
The casette adapter audio by itself is not very good. Voices are choppy.
bullshit... my car has a CD drive not a cassette... -_- "Any Car my ass"
PhantomMC Gaming buy cds burn them you get better quality from cds even aux gives you static especially cassette has a winding noise
Bro I want to be able to have the ability to play the song I want Really quick I don't really care about a little bit of static
Buy an in car FM transmitter, and use the same idea.
Alright im actually buying cds, and i hte searching for songs on mp3s or ipods when i drive ,2 dangerouse for me
LxTxSURGE pretty much the same thing trying to scroll through your CD list
why didn't you buy the Bluetooth that tunes into your radio .Walmart sells them for 20 bucks and hooks up in 10 seconds how long it take for you to do that probably an hour lol
Why would you destroy the battery charge capability? what about when your phone battery starts dying? seems like a hassle. that's just me good vídeo though.
Pablo Ortiz you can get a dual port. He actually stated that in the vid. My car has two charge ports in the front and one in the rear.
this is similar to what I did but without tape
