Hello all
Ive been working with a company costartech.com - Home to try and get this system working on the 2002-2004 Acura RL.
It took alot of work for my custom one off unit figuring out all the wiring diagrams etc. Bottom line is this modiule (Bluestar) that replaces the onstar unit is working just well in my Rl and I am loving it. In a quick rundown here is what it is:
The bluestar integrates a Motorola HF850 (I think) bluetooth car kit so that it can use your original onstar buttons as controls and of course the built in mic, then plays the audio through your vehicles audio system by muting the audio. Thats it,you get a fully integrated car kit which for me is great.
Now here is the thing. My kit was a one off pretty much BUT, the company is willing to make more if they get at least 10 buyers.
To install the unit you must be willing and able to cut some wires going into your onstar unit to route to the bluestar. All that is required for install is to remove the rear seat and tap into the wires on the onstar unit. I took lots of pictures of the process so if there are 10 buyers I will have no problems making a how to.
If anyone is interested or has any questions Please post here for now. if there are a minimum of 10 buyers I will NOT! be dealing with any money. If there is enough interest all payments/deposits will be made to the company itself. I am just trying to give back to the Acura comunity and help the company that sold me this great product.
I will try and get a short video up if anyone is interested and pictures.

Oh it looks like this one would also work on the 2003 Acura Cl and TL with Onstar. I'll triple check my wiring diagrams though.
