Default Bluetooth ISF 2008 [SOLVED]

I understand that the IS F doesn't have Bluetooth for 2008.
Although, I have been getting a notification on the screen saying that a phone failed to connect... I have no clue how to fix it, and I have no idea where I can access it on the navigation system.
Anyone else having this issue?

Questions aside -

Is there a way to integrate Bluetooth into the 2008 system?

You do have BT for your phone.

A fairly inexpensive BT receiver will enable you playing music through your smart phone. However, the control function is through the phone, no steering wheel accessible.

The other option is using a 3.5mm cable, assuming no XM installed.
