I don't know why i didn't think of this before, but does the 2011 fit with navi not have bluetooth? If so is there an after market option?

I'm pretty sure that none of the Fit Navis have Bluetooth, not just the 2011.

You need to replace your head unit / audio deck to get bluetooth. I got a nice double-din JVC that has bluetooth, and the sound quality is also ASTRONOMICALLY better.

I'm using this...

BlackBerry - Bluetooth Visor - Bluetooth Handsfree Speakerphone at BlackBerry.com

Works well and can also be used with the FM tuner and even displays the phone number via RDS. Since it transmits FM I use it with my Blackberry to listen to podcats and Pandora. Sound quality is on par with an average FM station. Good enough for a relatively inexpensive solution.

I've had three different Bluetooth Setups in the FIT. the first was a Rechargable Parrot Minikit slim which I am now using with my blackberry (work phone). works fine while I'm on the road.

I also used my Garmin GPS with Bluetooth built in back before I had my Droid X2 as I primarily use the X2 for navigation now. The sound quality was good but every time i updated the Garmin, I had to re-pair the phone.(about 3-4x/year)

Now with the droid X2 in the Car, I use a belkin Bluetooth audio adapter:
http://www.amazon.com/Belkin-Bluetoo...9189322&sr=8-2
i leave the X2 in my pocket for my short drive to work and just hit the button. for longer drives, I drop the Droid in the Cradle to maintain the battery, use the GPS, and enable the audio(Streaming wireless to the aux input).

I find it convenient to use the belkin since my phone is my primary audio device in the car now (instead of usb)

I'd probably go Parrot hard-wire or double-din stereo if I spent more time in the car and used other devices for audio. I'm not in the car enough anymore to warrant it.
