I would like to plug my phone into my (2002) cars stock HU. I think that I can just reach behind on the passenger side and plug this
in and it will work. Am I right?

I bought the below item from Crutchfield. https://www.crutchfield.com/p_249BTSTY1/Crux-BTS-TY1-Bluetooth-Interface.html?tab=review&omnews=15608220
This is the review that I left them;
This works great! I was able to install it in my 2002 MR2 Spyder without removing the stereo. I just reached behind the headunit on the passenger side and plugged it in to the empty slot on the lower right side. Plug and Play! Stock radio with bluetooth and aux. Perfect.

Dang, the one you got is fancy! I use the cheap one in my Tacoma, the aux cable on the cheap one is garbage and will go out quickly.

I was looking at going with a GROM unit as I had used one in my Mini.

Thats an interesting setup.
This is where the future is going for high end car audio also where its going to be Blue tooth and DSP based.
The problem is they are missing a few important features like the LDAC bluetooth protocol. I figure once they get the licensing it should work out great.

My Mini had the steering wheel controls and mic for hands free phone but Mini never put it in the vehicle (seems like a massive oversight) as it was a late 06 model that they called the facelift model as it had a different front end on it.
I added the Bluetooth, thumb drive (for stored music) and HD radio upgrades using the GROM unit. It was even the one the dealership recommended.
