Default Headless, phone controlled stereo

My Google-Fu is failing me, too many non related topics keep popping up while trying to find what I'm envisioning.

Which is basically a headless stereo system to drive the speakers, with AM/FM, that I can control via my smart phone. This is for an E-Type that is not required to look 101% authentic. Frankly I rather not see a radio on the dash and most of my music/streaming/podcasts are through my phone. There are plenty of ways to output a phone to a radio but I would like the next step of actually controlling the radio, switching radio stations and such, via the phone. Has anybody seen something like this?

Google “hideaway car stereo”

Rockford Fosgate makes what you want, I think. Many of them seem to be boat related, but I believe they make non-marine ones as well...

Welcome to the forum devnull,

That should take care of the luggage space in the E-Type!

I see you have already posted an Intro and are finding your way around the forums. Good luck with your project.

Thanks! That term certainly gets me a lot closer.

Still not seeing the one that will give me an interface on my phone/tablet to control the radio. It looks like it doesn't exist :-\
