Project Corner
Parker Reed has written up his project to allow his car stereo to play audio received over bluetooth. He did it by hooking up a Raspberry Pi with a bluetooth dongle to his car’s cigarette lighter power socket (using a USB adapter) and then altering various start-up files. A 3.5mm cable from the Pi's audio jack to the line-in on his stereo completes the set-up. You can read how he did it over on Reddit.
