Bluetooth / Cellphone integration into a deck

Just a simple scenario/question here.

Bought a new Deck for my beater (the sunfire) which is my work car, (the ss is my wife's throne for her to sit upon). It's a pioneer deck which has the option for the auxilary input. The deck is a "DEH-P80MP" and the adapter is:

just a simple RCA input. The whole reason i got this was to be able to play mp3's off of my cell phone thru my deck when i didnt have a whole cd of songs to burn. Only problem is that most 1.5mm Cell phone jacks, while still being a 2 channel output, are 1 channel transmit and 1 channel recieve. This puts sound in a mono, ugly ass quality at half volume thru a 1.5 to 2.5mm adapter (which splits into a mic input and a sound output).

Its janky as hell, i know. But It gets me by for now. I know a cell phone isnt the "wave of the future" and that mp3 players are a dime a dozen that would have a true stereo 2 channel output... but the phones DO have stereo output... in the form of bluetooth. Are there any frankenstien projects out there or aftermarket accessory that will recieve the bluetooth signal of my cell phone much like a bluetooth stereo headset, and output it to a set of RCA's? They make such products for IPOD's, etc, but they are AC based and thus require a 120 volt AC current, which would be WAY too expensive to buy the 200 dollar unit, an ac inverter, and then go thru all the trouble to "integrate" it hidden into my BEATER...

I will probably just go with a small MP3 Player that holds about a gig, but this whole concept got my gears going: i did happen to find this baby:

which takes the headphone jack signal, converts it to a bluetooth signal, which is then picked up by the reciever that has an RCA output. its a wireless system for an IPOD, but the only thing is it still has the damn headphone jack problem which is what i want to avoid. Is it possible for a 1 year old cell phone to even pick up that reciever and pair it in configuration settings? If so i'd be sold....

i'm not nessesarily looking for an answer, just a few things that i pondered and thought would be badass. Pioneer is definately looking towards this, because their new decks have bluetooth recievers in them JUST FOR cell phones.

so yeah. Thoughts?

Ipod does make an adapter im not sure how it plugs in but it links to a radio signal, no need for 110v though i would consider that, its much cleaner.

What kind of phone? For a PPC-6700 you can buy an adaptor that can convert it to a standard 1/8" stereo jack. I think the same exists for Treo's.
