Bluetooth usb to play music in a car from a phone

Hi,

I don't know much about Arduino, other than that it's a very popular development platform for electronic projects, and I've seen some pretty impressive projects done with it. Maybe I'm in the wrong place, but here goes

I'd like to create an USB key, mainly to be used in my car which has a radio but no Bluetooth. I wonder if I can create an Arduino USB that can be like a Bluetooth key which transfers music from phone to the car radio.

Can this be done with Arduino?

Thanks for your time!

What communication aids **does **the car have? How to make the car radio take in anything? Likely not an electron kanon?

Don't even think about it.
All your problems lie in the car radio. If you knew how to get into that, you wouldn't be asking the question and I imagine modifying the radio would be quite impractical, unless it was very old.

Does your radio have an audio-input, i.e, a 3.5mM jack?
If so, it could be done but would not require an Arduino.
It could be this simple:

The constituent parts are available online , too

They're already out there for years now......plugs in to the aux socket, transmits on a certain fm frequency.
Oh, yeah, for around $10.
