2007 H3 Using Cell through on board equip
I have an '07 H3 and am an On Star subscriber. I do not use their cell service because it's exorbitant for one and two, you can't walk around with it
Is there any way to get your cell phone to work with the on board equipment more like in a blue tooth capacity than having the cell service go through On Star?
Such a waste when you have safer equipment but in order to be safe you have to pay a premium. I don't know anyone that wants to have another phone number attached to their car that they have to give out as well as their personal cell. I was told by my carrier that I can pay an additional monthly fee to have the phone work through the Hummer but again, costs become ridiculous!
Figured someone somewhere must have figured out a way to circumvent this...

You could always get a FM modulator. That's what I use. You can talk through your stereo as well as listen to your MP3 player on your phone. Mine has to where you can hook up and charge either a droid or an Iphone. Cost me about $40. Bought it at Hastings but I'm sure other places have them.

If your vehicle is compatible with Bluetooth features you should be able to pair your phone. I would be happy to check you vehicle features if you have any questions. Just send me a PM with your VIN or Account number.

Don't listen to the onstar chick.
You have an 07 which did not have Bluetooth (2009-2010 had bluetooth). There are plenty of Bluetooth systems that can be mated to your OEM system and even more aftermarket radios that come with Bluetooth already in them.
