Has anyone used or tried the following Bluetooth Receiver?

Hoping to be able to use it to play music through the Spyder Soundsystem while routing phone calls to my 20s. I may just
give it a try as it is cheap and I am tired of going through iPhone extension cables that break at the fittings.
I'm also thinking if I go this route then I will take the next step of dash mounting my iPhone 6S Plus for the visual GPS benefit.
Thanks for feedback.
I use the unit from Lamont. $21 with free shipping. Works great. I like stuff from Lamont because he tries items before offering them on his site.
Does the Lamont one let you send iPhone music to spyder speakers while keeping iPhone phone to a BT headset? Mine will route iPhone musicQuote:

I guess you prefer the music to the speakers than to the headset?
Yeah, "makes" the wife enjoy my music too... :clap:Quote:

Now there maybe a way out. Look in your 20S manual page 19. There is a area that talks about selective pairing.
Using that, pair HFP (Phone call only) to your 20S.
Oh, before you do that erase the current pairing you have on your iPhone and reset the BT receiver.
Make sure your headset is on and phone only mode works.
Then pair your phone to the receiver. If the receiver doesn't try to take over HFP when it pairs, you should be good to go.

Awesome. I will give that a try this afternoon.Quote:

He is doing what I call reverse Bluetooth! That is he does not want to put his phone in the trunk and use the cable.Quote:

So totally different thing here.

Yep, that and my wife's "headset" is slapping me on the side of the helmet and yelling at me. Need to get oneQuote:

Edit: I am also tired of replacing the iphone extension cables when they break due to the flexing of the cable
at the connectors. I have had the bike for 13 months(16,000 miles) and have replaced the extension cable
twice due to breakage from flex. I also want the added benefit of mounting the phone up front for GPS visual
bonus.
I don't have a headset but the Lamont unit plays through my Spyder speakers. I can control the volume with the Spyder Control. I mount my iPhone 6 Plus on the handlebars and have direct access to what is playing.Quote:

RAM makes a mount for the iPhone 6+ but you do have to take it out of the case.Quote:

Works perfectly with just doing Device connected via the 20s. Phone cuts out the music over BT when I haveQuote:

I think so I can put the iPhone 6S+ up front.
