ALP HiFi/ BlueTooth/ vs default controller question

[siteexperts]

Thanks.

With the bluetooth controller, if you don't have your phone are you still jamming (even if you don't get alerts)

Or is the correct approach to put in the manual switch and turn back on the internal controller. For the manual switch; is there one that can be purchased and cleanly integrated into the car (e.g., a nice looking toggle button)
