What's this?
Found this is in the glovebox.
I thought it was a phone/a2dp connector but not finding anything on my phone when searching Bluetooth.
Any ideas?

Re: What's this?
Would have been my first guess. Have you checked the MMI media section to see if there are multiple sources listed?

I had one similar and needed a power source via the USB to work.

Re: What's this?
Thanks for the replies. Anyway to power it without having cables exposed?
Re: What's this?
I would test this device first as the USB powered Bluetooth device I tried (which looks like yours does) sounded absolutely awful when I tried streaming any music over it. It only came through the left speakers, the volume was very low and it sounded not far off an older AM Radio rather than a nice modern Spotify stream so I'm 100% sure I had a "bad" unit which, being made of Chinese-ium, could be a common theme if it's been left unpowered in your car.

Re: What's this?
Bought a cheap usp socket. Removed the glovebox and drilled a hole in the side to but the usb socket through. Then connected it to a power source. Think I tapped into something like the glovebox light. Originally soldered it but have since switched it out for a connector as when soldered it technically meant the glove box was permanently attached as the wires couldn't be disconnected.
