Hello Everyone,

Good news for people who were looking for enabling their OEM stereo (Blaupunkt) of Emotion (without PACK) with Blue & Me.

I call it Blue & Kiran since it is not a true Blue & Me.

What you get with this solution:

1. Amazing call clarity
2. Pair your phone directly with your car stereo
3. When the ignition is turned on your phone is automatically paired
4. You need not turn on the deck for taking/making the call, still the decks volume control works
5. You get a USB (either USB or Bluetooth works at a time)
6. Audio streaming from your mobile (by pressing the next button in stereo, you can move to next song in the mobile)
7. Stereo gets muted when call comes, and you hear the ring tone

What are you disappointed with this solution:

1. Both USB and Bluetooth doesn't work simultaneously. If your mobile is paired, you can use USB only for charging purpose.
2. Phone number is not displayed on the deck (you still need to look at the mobile)
3. While playing through the USB, you cannot see the song list, but you can move to next/ prev song.

What's the solution:
Use Blaupunkt Bluetooth interface. It is available for Rs.3500/- here (I got it in Bengaluru) and direct fit to ISO C1 & C2 ports and no modification required. Just ensure that battery is disconnected before connecting this.

I will try to post more information & pictures regarding this.

Finally, I have Bluetooth, USB, Aux-in in my Bluapunkt OEM stereo of Punto Emotion (no PK)

Click here for Blaupunkt link.
Blaupunkt Bluetooth Interface looks like this.


The ISO connector in the back of your Punto Emotion stereo would look like this.


Connect the Bluetooth interface to ISO connector C2 & C3 (Blue for C3 & Green for C2). You are done.

ENSURE THAT YOU DISCONNECT THE BATTERY BEFORE CONNECTING BLUETOOTH INTERFACE

I have placed the microphone on the front interior light (near inside mirror) and routed the cable through the edge of the upholstery and then behind the A pillar plastic cover. When it comes near the dashboard, there's small panel gap and cable can go through it.

Push To Talk (PTT) button is placed near the front cup holder since I didn't want to make any holes on the dashboard.

Let me know if anyone of you need any further information.

For Aux-in just take care of these 3 connections as shown below


With this you should have Bluetooth, USB, Aux-in working (with the limitations mentioned above)

Forgot to include this info. With this OLED display, one should be able to browse files in USB and see the incoming phone number and much more. But not available in India

excellent NSK .
I too was looking for this . few questions here :-

1 ) Will it work with HU ( bosch one ) . I have a May 2011 punto and it has got a bosch HU.
2 ) most important question : - From where can i buy it in Delhi / NCR . checked the website, cannot be ordered online.
3 ) could you pls post pics of setup in your punto for ref purpose.

1) Does your manual (provided by Fiat for audio) say it supports CD Changer? If yes, there's very high chance that it will work.
2) There was a web page with the distributors details in Blaupunkt. But I don't see it now :(
3) I was little lazy to do this. Will do it over the weekend.

does punto comes with audio manual as well . need to check on this or you are saying that audio info is available in regular owner manual . if yes will check and confirm . where did you bought it in b,lore. kindly PM me shop address or Phone no will be even more better .

On a diff note: - which month ver your punto is as fiat has stopped giving Blaukpaunt HU;s after dec 2010 i guess . this will give me a idea whether it will work on my U or not .

Yes Punto comes with audio manual. It is part of owner manual. The last section talks about audio and the last page of it has the details of CD changed.

I got it from Mandovi motors, Wilson garden, Bengaluru. They are the authorized distributor for Karnataka. You will be able to get their numbers over net.

I got my car before Dec 2010 and has Blaupunkt stereo (not Bosch). But, if your deck has C1, C2, C3 ISO ports you should be able to do it. In some thread I also saw that, disabled Aux-in can be enabled.

I should definitely thank Naveen @ Blaupunkt @ Mandovi. He was very courteous and were clarifying all my doubts.

Can you suggest a USB Plug fitting in Linea Cigar Lighter?

[NSK123]

I didn't get your question. I have USB as a separate cable.

Some more pictures attached. Press the CD button repeatedly to navigate through "CD > CD Changer > Aux-in"

CD -- Normal CD Player
CD Changer -- Play songs through your mobile media streaming OR through USB (if you pair your mobile you can't access USB unless you have "OLED Display")
Aux-in -- you can use it to connect any device that supports 3.5mm jack

The place below the deck (where you can see USB, Aux-in, PTT in the picture) I though is the best place since there's an opening and you can route the cables and no need of drilling any holes.

Uploaded these 2 images again since "Team-bhp" logo was clashing with the text in the image.

Moderator can delete these 2 picture in the previous post.

Sorry, I was not commenting on the 'Blue and me'.
I was asking if you can suggest a 'plug' snugly fitting on the socket(Lighter).

I hope the USB connection as a separate cable is taken out as 'extra' or non-OE connection. I think so.

I was asking 'how to take out power through the Lighter-plug source. I tried many type of plugs, nothing fitting in Linea's Lighter-power source.

I hope you got my point...

[NSK123]

I got a multi-charger from SP Road, Bangalore. It fits perfectly into the lighter point of Punto. You should be able to get it too.
