Audiolink, Bluetooth, MX5 Mk2/2.5/3

SKU: SI7155

The new audio-link bluetooth interface enables a wireless connection to your smartphone, mobile device or tablet pc. The AVRCP protocol allows you to manually control the connected device through the radio or steeringwheel interface (forward, rewind etc.)

The bluetooth interface is connected through the cd changer connector, and produces very high quality sound!

- Wiring loom detachable for easy installation
- 3,5mm AUX connector for devices with jack plug connector
- A2DP protocol for audiostreaming via bluetooth
- AVRCP protocol for control over your device (forwarding, rewinding etc).
- USB connector for charging your device
- Take and end calls by using the fast forward button on your radio
- Compatible with apps like Spotify, Google Play etc incl. control
- Supplied with a separate microphone for handsfree talking
- Dimensions: 6,5 x 6,2 cm x 2,3 cm

Installation is easy, but does require removal of your vehicle's head unit from the center console. IMPORTANT! BEFORE removing the head unit and plugging this device in, you must first disconnect the vehicles battery. Not only is this for your safety when removing the stereo, but also in some circumstances, failiure to disconnect the battery can make the audio link malfunction. Once the head unit is removed, the Audio Link simply plugs into the external CD changer port, located on the back of the head unit. The Audio Link wiring can then be routed to your glove box, down the center console to the cupholders, or wherever would be most convenient for you.

The kit includes the Audio Link control unit and a plug-and-play wiring harness.

Only works with the Mazda Modular Units, will not work with 'Bose' audio in Mk2/2.5. Also does NOT work with Mk3 6 disc changer head units.

Latest version now works with ALL head units in Mk3, all functions, track forward, back, battery charge etc. (also works from the steering wheel controls).

Please Note: If your car is not one of the Mazda MX-5's listed above, we can not warrant this part or its suitability for use on your vehicle. You would be able to return the unit for a full refund (excluding postage costs) as long as it is returned in perfect condition. We are not able to supply this unit for any vehicle other than those listed above.

Fits all Mk2/2.5 & Mk3 models, 1998>2008 with a Mazda modular head unit.

Love it. Quick and easy to install - though some decent instructions would be nice - links easily to my phone and has worked flawlessly ever since.

Hi, Just fitted my Audio-link to my Mk3 MX5, screen did not read EX C01 but EX 1, no announcements to say it linked up and having trouble making calls. Any ideas would be helpful 🤔Editors Note: Sorry to hear you are experiencing problems with this. A member of the sales team will be in touch with you shortly to try and help get it sorted.

Awesome, works perfectly (audio and phone) in my 2007 Mx5 NC Bose audio. I can use remote control from steering wheel, actually using with an Iphone 6S but checked also with android's phones without problems. USB port just charges device's battery.

easy fit, took about 25 minutes all told and syncs to iPhone easily. i used a flexi 3/8 drive socket extender for the 10mm bolt at rear of head unit made removal easy. also the bluetooth mob fits in recess under heater controls, if you feel the top of the recess there is a slot between the facias, the nipple of the mic will slot in there and rotates to lock in place and works fine there so you don't damage your original facia at all. good product.

This is a really good bit of kit and the hands free mic is clear even with roof down. Instructions would have been handy but as they are on the mx5 parts page it was a doddle to fit.

Initially I was gong to return this because I installed it and nothing happened when I press media button even though my iPhone paired with the audio link fine. Only after emailing mx5parts did I know you had toPress the CD button twice to activate external input mode (displays EX:01). It now plays music. Wish there was some sort of instructions you could download from mx5parts for your car model. There is no pause function.Works for my JDM 2007 built-in 6cd changer Bose unit. PRESS CD button TWICE to enter EX:01 mode and it should play music.

Just fitted to my Mk2.5 Sport. Ran the cable to the centre console by the boot/fuel levers so that I have easy access to the AudioLink unit and mic cable. Needed a small rectangular hole drilled to feed the connector and cable through but no problem. Watching a few Youtube vids helped with removing the centre console, including the fact that the window switches had to come out to get at an extra screw.Took under and how to fit and I'm very pleased with it.Instant Bluetooth success with my Samsung S4mini.

Bought this recently for my newly acquired MK3. Looked at other options including buying a new head unit and fascia but decided to give this a go. Had to do a bit of searching as to how to get the OEM head unit out to be able to plug the unit into the external CD changer socket but not too difficult. I was concerned that there might be a security code on the head unit from a previous owner and I had no record of this so despite the advice on here, I connected the Bluetooth unit without disconnecting the battery. I made sure the ignition key was out of the switch and the head unit had been correctly switched off before proceeding. Simple single plug into the back of the head unit after routing cable from glovebox. Thankfully all good! Now the module is paired to my iPhone, I have spotify for all my music and when I switch the stereo on, it connects instantly and providing the correct "mode" is selected on the head unit, it just starts playing my music from where it left off previously, brilliant! If an incoming call is received, you get an announcement telling you. Press the up button on the steering wheel and start talking, press down button, call ends and music resumes! For the money and relatively easy installation, I really like it and it keeps the OEM look to the dash, the head unit being good quality as standard. Only thing I would have liked would have been a longer lead for the microphone but it's now mounted on the little tray at the front of the centre console and callers say the sound quality of speech is fine. I've not needed to but iPhone can be charged via USB port on the module, tucked away in the glove box, it normally just stays in my pocket! I can scroll tracks from the steering wheel control too.

Delivery Information - MX5 Parts

We understand that its really important for you to receive your goods in a timely fashion and for a competitive price. To ensure that we can deliver this we have developed a strategic partnership with both the Royal Mail and our courier partner, Think Worldwide.

At the present time, we only offer one delivery option ‘our carrier’. We will dispatch your goods with the most suitable carrier, for main land UK deliveries this is normally Royal Mail 1st class for packages weighing under 1.5kg and Think Worldwide for those that are over.

Our delivery charges are based on the weight of the consignment and the destination address. For UK mainland deliveries they start at £1.97 for a package weighing under 300g and rise to a MAXIMUM of £9.95 for a package weighing 1.5kg or over (EXCEPT very large bulky items that have an additional shipping surcharge added). The exact delivery cost will be clearly displayed at checkout.

Delivery times are estimated at 1-3 working days by Royal Mail, and 1-2 working days by Think Worldwide for mainland UK addresses. If you order before 3pm, Monday to Friday, we will dispatch the same day. If you order after 3pm, we will try to dispatch the same day, but if we cant it will be the next working day. Items ordered after 3pm Friday or over a weekend will be dispatched Monday. Items dispatched on Friday are for delivery the following week. Items ordered over a Bank Holiday will be dispatched the next working day. MX5parts is constantly updated to keep pace with changes in our stock but demand is high and we occasionally run out of popular items. If we have run out of stock and can’t dispatch your order the next working day, we’ll email or phone you with a revised dispatch date. You can then either accept the revised dispatch date or cancel the order, as you wish. Please note, shipping times are an estimate, and can not be guaranteed. Please note that during special offer periods, dispatch of your order may be delayed slightly due to high a volume of orders.

A signature is required for ALL orders delivered by Think Worldwide. Someone must be at your delivery address to sign for your parcel between 8am and 6pm on a working day. Please send it somewhere it can be reliably signed for, like your place of work, a neighbour, or perhaps your grans. We can (but we don’t like to) ask the courier to leave your parcel without a signature. If we do this, it will be YOUR responsibility if the parcel is lost or damaged. If you want it left, you need to give us your express instructions in the ‘additional information’ box at the end of the checkout process. It would be helpful if you could also indicate exactly where the package should be left.

If you need to change your delivery address, for any packages that have been dispatched with Think Worldwide, there will be an additional charge of £9.95 if the package has already been dispatched.

Please remember, even with Royal Mail deliveries, that any items which are too large to fit through your letter box will need someone to be available to receive the delivery. If the item cannot be delivered, you will be carded and given the option of either a re-delivery or you can collect your parcel from your local post office depot.

Orders sent to countries outside the UK will be sent VAT free, however please note that on all international shipments, the recipient is responsible for any local VAT, import duty and other clearance fees that may be charged.

Our Guarantee - MX5 Parts

We guarantee that you’ll be satisfied with mx5parts!

We are an independant, family company, run by a dedicated team. We aim to be the kind of company that we’d like to deal with if we were you. You have our absolute commitment as fellow MX-5 owners, car nuts, internet users and hard-working people that you’ll be satisfied with mx5parts. If you’re not, let us know and we’ll sort it out!

We guarantee “always fair prices”

MX5parts maintains an everyday savings pricing policy. We watch other retailers closely and maintain competitive pricing. The internet being the beast it is means that any Tom, Dick or Henrietta can set up a website in their back room and charge bargain basement/off the back of a lorry (guv) prices. Often they will have no stock, no returns policy, questionable security, no guarantees and of course poor customer service. MX5parts strives to be open and honest, so we will never inflate our prices to set up an artificial ‘sale’ (a common – and illegal – retail practice).

It is inevitable in an open market like the internet that there will be some individuals selling some items cheaper than we do, and some selling them for more than we do, just as in the high street. We take great pride in offering a fast, efficient, friendly and secure shopping experience, with great products at fair prices. We encourage our customers to shop around, but are very pleased to welcome them back again and again.

We guarantee to despatch your order when we say we will

If you order before 3pm, Monday to Friday and we have your items in stock , we’ll despatch the same day . If you order after 3pm, we’ll still try to despatch that day but, if we can’t, we’ll despatch the following day. Items ordered after 3pm Friday or over a weekend will be despatched Monday. Items despatched on Friday are for delivery the following week. Items ordered over a Bank Holiday will be despatched the next working day. MX5parts is constantly updated to keep pace with changes in our stock but demand is high and we occasionally run out of popular items. If we have run out of stock and can’t despatch your order the next working day, we’ll email or phone you with a revised despatch date. You can then either accept the revised dispatch date or cancel the order, as you wish. Please note that during special offer periods, dispatch of your order may be delayed slightly due to high a volume of orders.

We guarantee to replace any goods which aren’t suitable

We guarantee to accept back any goods that you do not want, are not suitable, have changed your mind about, infact, for ANY reason, provided the goods reach us within 30 days of dispatch from us, in their original condition and packaging. Please tell us why you are returning the items, just for our records. The original purchase price of the goods will be refunded on to the card that was used for their purchase. Sorry, but we can not refund the carriage costs.

We guarantee to sort out any problem with your order

Just contact us if you have any problems with an order from mx5parts. We’ll tell you exactly what steps we’re going to take to rectify the problem.

We guarantee full warranty support on all items

Just contact us if you have a warranty problem. All goods supplied by mx5parts are from official sources and are covered by the normal manufacturers warranty.

We guarantee that we will only charge your credit/switch card when your goods are dispatched

This is your right under UK law and, if we do anything else, it’s illegal!

(Please note: This doesn’t apply however if you have chosen to pay via PayPal. Due to the way PayPal works, you are effectively sending the money to us rather than us asking for it so in this instance we will have received payment at the time the order was placed and not when it is ready for dispatch).

We guarantee that we won’t pass your email details on to anyone else

Absolutely not. All your details are treated as strictly confidential. We’re internet users, too, and we know how annoying unsolicited email can be. We wouldn’t risk annoying you by being the cause of it.

We guarantee that shopping with us is safe
