If you use your phone exclusively for audio and have it on a holder all the time there are a lot of stand alone Bluetooth controllers out there.

Yeah that would do it, were the battery terminals disconnected?

I totally understand the desire to hide a modern looking stereo. I'm trying to keep my interior as minimalist as possible and it's especially hard to find a place for the head unit if your interior looks like this:



Stand alone Bluetooth controllers will work with your phone or Bluetooth enabled amp, it just provides a physical knob/pad that you can mount.








I'm planning on mounting my phone to use as a display for track info and navigation. There are quite a few marine and UTV remote displays that are smaller and slimmer than traditional DIN sized units, although now the digital only ones are only a couple inches deep.

No...they were not. Forgot all about it. All the 55+ stuff works fine...

Is that your ‘65 Mini?

At least you know now :science:

Mine's a later MK3, I'm trying to emulate the early interior though.

Great work, the satisfaction you get from nice, clean reassembly almost makes up for all the drudgery that leads up to it.
