I ended up buying a Bluetooth adapter kit. It's unobtrusive, didn't set me back much and retains a mostly stock look.

SoundBot SB360 Bluetooth 4.0 Car Kit Hands-Free Wireless Talking & Music Streaming Dongle w/ 10W Dual Port 2.1A USB Charger + Magnetic Mounts + Built- https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00RH29CJO/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apap_T1aO3lqucIgEU

I spliced into an accessory wire so it's on with the switch. Used a simple 3.5mm extension to hook it all up via the aux port in the front. Mounted it on the overhead console and ran the wires under the ceiling panel and down the a pillar.



So far it has worked great. No problems streaming music, podcasts or audiobooks via my phone, phone calls sound good. My phone pairs right when I start the truck, like almost instantly. Best part, I don't have wires all over the place.
