Does anyone make a bluetooth adapter for ipod docks in cars that can pass the track skip commands to an iphone?

Here is what I want to do: I have an 08 Infiniti G35 with the stock stereo. It has ipod integration, but its the old firewire kind, so I have an adapter on the end of the stock infiniti dock connector that converts it to the new charging standard (which I needed for my iphone 3gs and 4s to charge them) and now I have a 30-pin to lightning adapter on the end of that for my iphone 5.

It all works fine actually, my 5 charges and plays music fine, I can use all the steering wheel controls, and the artist/track name shows up on the screen.

I recently had a Buick Lacrosse as a rental car, and I tried its bluetooth audio and really liked it. I'd like to put a bluetooth receiver on the end of the stock infiniti dock connector to be able to do bluetooth audio, but most of the reviews I read say that the bluetooth receivers only passively receive audio, they wont receive artist/track data, nor will they pass the steering wheel control button presses to the phone.

Is there an adapter that does this out there?
