I realize I'm the noob on here, so flame me if needed, but how do I search past posts in the Versa forums?
I'm trying to locate any information on adding the bluetooth option to a stock S stereo. Is it even possible or will I have to swap out the stock stereo with an SL model or something? What parts are needed? Is all the wiring already there or will this be a complete start from scratch project?
Any info appreciated.

Re: Bluetooth (scooterbob)
First, welcome to NICO!
Second... to search, look just below the NICOClub.com banner at the top of the page. there will be a button indented a little from the left that says "Search this site for answers", and it has a picture of the nissan logo inside a magnifying glass.
And finally, to answer your question: You can't add bluetooth to a stock S stereo. I don't even think it can be added to an SL's stereo if the SL didn't originally come with the Convenience package. The electronics for the iKey and bluetooth are somehow tied together, and are separate from the stereo (as evidenced by the fact that SL stereos with and without the convenience package are exactly the same model).
What you CAN do is buy one of the many aftermarket models that have bluetooth included in them. There used to be only one or two, now there are a dozen or so... and more will come as time goes on and the option becomes more popular, and handsfree sets become the law in more and more states.
Check out online stereo retailers like Crutchfield.com for information, and check out our sponsor, VersaSpeed.com for the installation and wiring kits necessary for the proper installation.

Welcome from me as well!!!
Enjoy your trek into the NICO forums. You will be sucked inm I know I was...and I'm not even a "car guy", just a guy who wanted to hear about potential problems and solutions to things with his shiny new car...
And don't worry about being a n00b here, this isn't World of Warcraft or Final Fantasy XI, the people here are just good people and I doubt if flaming of any kind is tolerated anyway.
I certainly wouldn't flame you or anyone ever anyway
