Bluetooth module for E500

Hi everyone, I'm looking for a new bluetooth adapter for my car. I had an aftermarket radio in my car but the BT stopped working so I'm back to stock. I also was using a BT adapter through the AUX port in my glovebox but that also now doesn't work. The car is wired for BT as I have the module in the center console. I unfortunately sold that a while ago. The connector in the center console located on the back of the cubby, is this the 30 pin I can use to connect a new adapter like I have in the picture? I'm trying to figure out what can plug into that to give me BT. NOTE - I don't have ipod integration in the glove box only AUX.

Thanks!!

UPDATE: I went back and pulled out everything and I had missed the plug on the back of the factory unit for AUX. Works now but I still have 0 sound coming from my Xtrons (aftermarket headunit). Waiting for cables to test the fiber optic box which was their suggestion. At least I have BT working with my factory unit but this is getting frustrating.

The bluetooth now works flawlessly and very easy to control form the stock headunit. The install was extremely easy and does require losing the cd changer. But that does give more storage I guess. My Note 10+ pairs instantly even if I shut the car off and come back. Very nice system. I'm still working on getting the other headunit to work so I'll update with that once I get an SD card.
