    I'm looking at a way to boost the sound on the phone when using it as a satnav

    I havent got Bluetooth on my radio and seen a cheap Bluetooth speaker in Halfords, but one review says it's for call audio only

    I can use aux connection, but then can't have music on

    I think you will go through so much expense and hassle that buying a cheap sub €100 sat nav would be a better option. Your phone will also be using data if your using Google maps for it so dependent on phone signal.

    I was looking at the one in Halfords for 15 to see and worse case try in carpark and bring back

    If data usage/coverage is/was an issue id just go with here maps, handy to download an use offline(minus traffic etc)

    Those speakers arent worth it, if you wanted to go that route get a proper bluetooth setup in your car like a Parrot kit.
