Is it possible to buy somehow the audio unit that exist in i30 Trophy edition that has integrated bluetooth and install it on an i30 without bluetooth?

Should be available via a dealer but would be expensive.. Better to buy a bluetooth module that clips on the sunvisor (regularly sell in OZ for around $40) or buy a GPS with integrated bluetooth and get the benefit of having a GPS as well which gives you a heads up speedo as well as directions... :cool:

Over here the bluetouth comes from the factory in the roof glasses compartment. It actually replaces the spot and is not connected to the radio .  This might be easier to install while retaining oem look and feel
You could probably find one from a crashed i30 for quite cheap

If you look on ebay there are some "genuine" bluetooth kits that might help you out?

I wanted a clean solution. No extra screens and cables on my dash and I wanted to be able to make a conversation through my audio system speakers.

I can't believe hyundai haven't released a serious solution for this (except the trophy models).  :fum: :fum: :fum:

In Oz, bluetooth is standard on all models, not just the Trophy....

how much were you planning to spend? you can try shopping on ebay ... there are a few sellers who have audio units to suit i30s. some of these units come with a 7" touchscreen that can play DVDs and also function as a reverse camera monitor.

I've seen them. Actually my father has installed one of those units in his car. He has a Toyota Rav4 but that unit when boots it has the Hyundai logo. They are low quality units and they remind me china cloned phones.
