Default iPod interface/bluetooth dongle

Has anyone attached a 30 pin bluetooth dongle to the HD or HDPDPLUS II 30 pin iPod interface? I'd like to be able to listen to music from my iPhone while its in my pocket and also be able to control it from the handlebar controls and the buttons on the Harman kardon face plate.

Btw, this is my first post here! I've been lurking since buying a 2012 street glide a month ago - lots of great info here!!

I bought one on Amazon.com I can stream Pandora, Sirius, iPod or what ever from my phone. But I can only control the volume. The iPod interface shows an iPod connected, it just won't do anything else.

I bought the $20 Bluetooth device mentioned here a month ago and it works great. I just put my I Phone in my pocket and play music. From my hand controls, I can only control the volume, but I put together a great motorcycle playlist and it works great -- all for $20. SJ Ron

That's too bad. I have installed iphone integration kits in my cars that had bluetooth and the steering wheel controls worked. Grom makes them for many vehicles but unfortunately not for our bikes.
