Does it have any phone controls on the steering wheel? That looks similar to our old head unit which did not have bluetooth.

Yes looks a std unit ..so no blue-tooth..had same issue in our Presara so besides using an aux connection to your phone and unit ..money to get a new one..bummer

KAA

not a Phontic..KAA is the Giant Python in The Jungle Book Story..was a Cub Leader at on stage in life so stuck with me

Good Luck

Yeah..i can call ppl by pushing controls on the steering wheel. It also has a voice recognition button i can speak into. I can answer my phone via bluetooth button on the steering wheel. 

( my attempt at uploading my pic will give an indication of my technical abilities ..)
