You would have to enable and use an FM Transmitter (if this ability is built in to your GPS device) to do this. Then, whatever sound is produced by the GPS (or MP3 Player within it) is broadcast to the frequency of your choice to which you tune your FM stereo.
The other option would be if your GPS unit has an audio out jack (for headphones, etc), and your stereo has an audio in jack, you could match these up.

Does the unit have bluetooth built in?
If so disable the Parrot and use the unit.

Is it this one? [Please Register or Login to download file]

it is the same as picture exept it is 6 by 3" the parrot can be disabled and i have tried it and find i cannot connect wirelessly from audio system to gps as explained the gps's bluetooth seems to be seperate from the gps side(it seems it is only for all the other gadgets on it music flash book excel pdf etc, i tried today stripping down the dashboard of the car to get at the audio system but i gave up, i think the only way i can do it is connect headphones to it or do you know another way, i will try any way to get it to talk throught the sound system

You can buy a separate FM transmitter although there is a huge variation in sound quality between them, Try to find one that doesn't auto power-off when there's no sound outputted.
