Bluetooth options

I have just got a 30GB 4G data allowance on my new sim so thought I might as well use spotify or the like to stream music as the radio can get a bit flakey sometimes.
My car has the standard Symphony unit but with the apple dock in the glovebox and 3.5mm jack behind the armrest, bluetooth for calls and MFSW.
I know there are a few options like: FM transmitters, 3.5mm to bluetooth, parrot kits and tune2air (not sure which model(s) - think there is 1000 and 3000? ) and don't mind buying 2nd hand/off ebay but was wondering what would be relatively cheap and do the following:
• automatically pair with my android phone if I left bluetooth on (assume almost all will do this).
• work for calls (the factory mic on the integrated bluetooth is rubbish....even worse with the roof down!)
• work with the MFSW for music, changing tracks etc.
• not cost a fortune

Thanks!

Tune2air wma1000 is the one to use on the basic iPod dock and will auto connect and will work with mfsw

great thanks, do you know if it will work for phone calls as well with the MFSW?
i.e. I can answer using the MFSW like the built in bluetooth but it would then use the mic on my phone (its on a magnetic dock on the dash) and play through the bluetooth?
If so I think i'll just fork out and get it as it seems to have good audio and reviews.

Firstly, ONLY the oem Bluetooth will work with mfsw for calls

Second, that link you've posted isn't for your unit, that's for AMI not iPod dock

thanks for clarifying - will be after something with some buttons then, how about something like this:

I already have one of these USB car power supplies to feed my 2 dashcams (front/rear) and charge my phone so have 2 spare ports anyway and it's next to the Aux port.

take it I can't unplug the ipod dock and plug that in? :?

Hi, first time on here, having lurked for a bit. The Bluetooth option I'm looking at is this one:

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Audi-Car-...etooth-Aux-Music-iPhone-Samsung-Sony-Smartphone-Interface-Adaptor-/351238671642

It's more expensive than some but seems to do everything, except handle calls through the MFSW (I hadn't picked that up until reading what ReTTro fit said, above). I have a concert 2+ stereo, but no external connections at all - no iPod connector, no aux in, nothing and I have a MFSW but no Bluetooth (well, not to my knowledge).

Question is, has anyone tried one of these, does it offer everything the advert suggests and will it be as simple to install as they suggest? They seem to say it is just plug and play - no coding or anything required. Is that likely to be the case? The advert says it needs to be a Concert III stereo, but I emailed them and they said a II+ would be fine - it's just about having the right 12 pin connector.

Cheers.
