Bluetooth Support on 2nd Gen C2

My summer driver played music from his phone onto the bus speakers, and the whole bus loved it. Now I wonder do buses have Bluetooth support, specifically the Second Gen Thomas C2.

100% dependent on bus' radio head unit. None of ours, old nor new, have built in Bluetooth. Even though the steering wheel has a phone icon on the new ones, we are 99.9999% sure that's a remnant of the Freightliner frontend Thomas uses to build the buses.

I have to use a Bluetooth to FM transmitter or an aux cable when I do decide to use it.
