For those of you who want to maintain the stock/original radios but want to use your iPods, phones, etc. to play music, check this out from Radio Shack.

I added Bluetooth with this amp from Kenwood: http://www.kenwood.com/usa/car/marine/kac-m1824bt/

I hid it behind the glove box. The wired remote toggles between Bluetooth input and radio input. My radio sounds terrible so I just keep it on Bluetooth input all the time. My iPhone automatically connects and plays music when I turn the car on and stops my music from playing when I turn the car off.

The only real downside is that the volume is controlled by the phone. The wired remote has volume buttons, but I have it hidden away. I'm considering hacking it and adding another window switch to the center console for volume.

I have the same thing and it works great. It's funny that the DeLorean can be made smartphone compatible more easily (and cheaper) than my modern daily driver that doesn't have an aux cable.
