Stupid BT Question

First of all, I apparently have one of the two dozen PPC-6800s that has functional BT, at least as far as hands-free car kits goes (DCX Uconnect works flawlessly with my phone). My question is this: if I get a BT GPS unit, will the phone work with both simultaneously, or do I have to pick one or the other? It would be nice to use Uconnect and navigate simultaneously.

Also, does anyone know if window tint affects GPS reception? I'm thinking about just tossing my GPS unit on the rear deck and running a power lead to the fuse block in the trunk. That way the unit is under glass (albeit really tinted glass) but is out of sight and mind.

Thanks,

Mike

Yes the phone can pair to multiple things at one time like a headset and a GPS.

Also, the window tint shouldn't be a problem with gps unit. I've had mine sitting on the floor where it had to get signal through the dash and the roof without any problems.

Excellent, thank you.

Anyone have a recommendation for a good, inexpensive GPS unit? I was looking at the Holux, which seems to be getting good reviews.

Thanks,

Mike
