Default PHONE PREPARATION KIT - AUDI TT 2001 225HP

Hi,

I have an Audi TT 2001 BAM 225 hp
I was trying to find a solution so as to play music via an aftermarket bluetooth adapter at my Concert 1 (not Bose stickers anywhere...), until someone told me that since my car has the Phone Preparation Kit i have bluetooth.
Could you please provide with some help?

I thought the black sharp on top had to do with FM antenna, now if i am not wrong, i think it's the cellular antenna.

Also, at the gear shift there is installed the phone preparation kit/cradle

Although the rear console cover does not have any slot for cellular, below that i can see the port for the (Cullmann?) Motorola phone (?). btw, how is this port called?
is there any adapter for iPhone?

On the dashport, is this a Microphone? Car audio is not Bose system

Behind the Concert 1 headunit, i could see a cable running to "Mute" on the Telephone connection (the big read connector) (sorry no photo on that one)

My questions are:
1) Is there any way to connect iPhone so as to charge it through rear console port?
2) how is the port at the rear console cover called? MMI? AMI? or.... ?
3) Is the phone preparation kit a bluetooth?
4) On dashboard, (above photo), is this a Microphone?
5) Can i play music through iPhone via phone preparation bluetooth?
6) Can i call/speak through this phone preparation system?
7) Is there any cradle for iPhone 6 Plus?

Thank you!
PS I did my search (again), but didnt find answers to all above?

The stub antenna is for telephone. All cars had the stub irrespective of whether it had the phone option. The radio antenna is in the rear window. Tint the rear window with metallic tint and you will have no AM radio. The phone option was very rare so getting info from prior users will be tough. In all the TT events I've been to, I can count the number of Mk 1s with the phone option on one hand. It was a proprietary transceiver connection specifically for Motorola phones and not Bluetooth.

I'm not positive, but isn't that an old analog phone that's no longer usable on the digital networks? I know it won't look as good, but I ended up putting a Kenwood stereo in place of the OEM unit and it's so much more versatile. I have Bluetooth audio streaming, I can answer calls hands free, it has HD radio and a USB input. For $100 or so, you get something useful. Keep the old head unit if you want to go back to the original look.

Thank you for your reply.
when i bought the car, it had a Sony with USB etc but I wanted the genuine radio which i found in good condition
Now I have also installed a bluetooth (hidden) which i can use for calls and music.
i understand what you say and i was tempted to do the way you mention.

it’s just that i like to keep this..retro style

I have just bought a 2001 TT Roadster which has the original Audi concert stereo with cassette deck, and the 6-disk changer in the cubby behind the passenger seats; I would like to find a solution to plug in my iphone for music and play through the factory stereo.
Based on what I have discovered in quickly looking through here is that there are devices where I can utilize the port off the head unit for the 6-disc changer and plug in something for using my iPhone. Would appreciate any advice and recommendations other TT owners have out there.
Thanks!
