A basic bluetooth radio https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B07CJKRXFC/ref=pe_27063361_487055811_TE_3p_dp_1
A thing for the phone to mount it somewhere easy to see
https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B07FNZWXXV/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1A convertor kit for the car with a replacement fascia and connectors to wire in the steering wheel controls.
I could have gone for a cheaper no-brand radio and I'm sure it would be fine, but the convertor kit had instructions for the main brands so seemed less faff to go that way. And it's nice to keep the steering controls. The thing that originally made cds skip a track now works for Spotify!

Car audio/sat nav question
I want to replace the original stereo in my 2004 car. Don't need cd, just radio and bluetooth.
Current setup has a cd-slot phone holder and a charger with a bluetooth to FM adapter.
Feels like I should be able to get all of that in one unit now instead of chargers, mounts and cables looking like a Halfords car boot sale.
What's the standard non-audiophile car audio setup these days?
everything (sat nav, audio UI) on the phone, phone in a third-party holder, bluetooth connection for music
head unit with satnav, bluetooth for music, audio UI on the head unit
something else?
