Original Head unit NHDN-W5u

[Guest]

Hi all. Have this radio head unit in my Alphard. All works great. My question is does it have bluetooth? I can't find anything and have tried searching with my phone nothing found. There is a phone mic stuck to the steering column trim and phone contacts within the headunit. Which makes me think the unit has bluetooth.

Wood appreciate you comments.

sorry for the late reply. tried everything. come to the conclusion there is no bluetooth. Such a good sound from unit I decided to keep it.

Have a bluetooth device in the Jack socket that I can connect my phone too. Run radio and music from my phone through the bluetooth device. Can use the phone call come through car speakers. Phone mounted on air vent next to radio, can speak to caller all ok.

I have a MZ G of the same year (2006) fitted with a different OEM HDD head unit which definitely supports blue tooth !

I can't find any Bluetooth at all in mine

I'm going to buy this while I save up for a head unit.

I like the sound from our head unit so gonna keep it, and use a separate garmin... It looks a good answer dom that though

I've just got an Alphard last week so still like a kid in a sweet shop. I agree the sound is pretty good Nota.

I may keep it myself and use Google maps on phone.

I bought a separate garmin with Bluetooth on it.... Lots of people are selling them for not a lot of money as most cars have them built in..... Enjoy ur van,they are fantastic
