What I've found is really cool about the PSR-S975 is something called "Virtual Circuit Modeling". It's actually the culmination of decades of work in a Yamaha sound lab, and I was fascinated by the work that went into it!
^^^^^ Now that's just funny and I want one!
There are a million different designs. I looked at them as gag gifts once.
Oh, I'll be looking at them later!!!

Meh, not my style. Plus doubt they'd work on the Jeep doors.
Umm. I'm pretty sure they were made just for you.

I am a geek, yes. Sometimes a loud and proud geek. BUT ... I have some sense of style. My Jeep is silver with black accents. I stick with silver and/or black or the many shades of gray. Just what looks good, muted, not super in your face. Not great pics here but anyway, I go for somewhat subtle.

So let me be the first to say that FM transmitters suck for phone calls, and really everything else. I sent it back and got this instead. It's a Bluetooth Aux in unit and it works incredibly well but has wires. 
I got it set up (for now) and will see what I can do this weekend to streamline the wires.

I think that whomever made that stereo with all those features and no BT should be slapped with a trout.

Agreed.
Look I LOVE this Jeep but whoever ordered it from the factory was an idiot. It's a Limited, it SHOULD have BT and remote start, both were omitted. So it HAS the navigation stereo that includes the (option - button) for BT but the BT receiver was not installed. (On a side note Jeep/Dodge/Chrysler can kiss mah butt for even having a stereo that has to have a unit installed separately for a button on the stereo face to work - but that's another diatribe) ...
ANYWAY, so it works now and I'll install the dern remote start myself.
Are you sure they were never installed? My son bought a pre-owned Mazda 6 with what looks like a premium head unit and sound package, but we found after he took delivery that even though there are buttons on the steering wheel for hands-free calls, there was no BT receiver. So, we popped the dash to look and found the wiring harness taped up rather unprofessionally and think the dealer pulled it for parts. Of course we couldn't prove anything, and BT was never specified in the sales agreement, but it's a car dealer whose ethics reside somewhere between lawyers and politicians.

Yea I had a Jeep dealer (not where I purchased it) do a VIN search for me and the remote start was ordered as "removed" - it's included in the Limited package, and the head unit must have the Sound Group package added to get the Boston Acoustics speakers and BT. That package was not ordered. I also got a copy of the original window sticker. Now they DID add the tow package and HID lights and the larger gas tank ... so there's that.
My cheap 2014 Ram truck radio has BT... to apple only. Now that is truly an insult. I can USB into it.. but as you say.. the wires are a hassle.
Along those lines... my recent purchase... I resubscribed to SiriusXM today as well as their streaming services. We'll see how long I last this time.

Picked this up at the Knife Roadshow, in Dalton, GA, this past weekend.

There is something wrong with you. Your Jeep looks WAAAY too clean
Give a man time. I JUST got it. Hoping to mud her up a bit this weekend, it's Maggie's (my pooch) 5th birthday tomorrow, so we are going in search of sun and trees and water to take her on a nice walk and run around a bit, have a picnic. So ... fingers crossed.
