Default Bluetooth for ‘98

Any easy suggestions for Bluetooth for my ‘98? It has a cassette player…

I just bought this for my 99, and it works great. AmazonSmile: Anker Roav Bluetooth Car Adapter and Car Charger, Power IQ 3.0 Type C PD, Bluetooth FM Transmitter for Car, Wireless Calling with Bluetooth 5.0, Noise Cancellation -T2 : Electronics

Does it work? I’ve had problems with these in as it doesn’t have enough height in the cigarette lighter and too big for console adapter.

So all I have to do is plug it into the cigarette lighter, go to Sirius or Spotify on my iPhone and then Presto! I have my desired music playing thru my Corvette speakers via this Bluetooth device? rod

Will the Bluetooth work with answering a phone? Where’s the speaker?

After reading this thread I ran to Best Buy and bought the same Anker Roav model from the link above; $30. I have yet to test it.
