Default BlueTooth the Blackberry to the car

I've just gotten a Blackberry Storm, fully Bluetooth capable. How do I connect it to the car? I remember reading it was possible or am I miss-remembering. Do I need any sort of "adapter" to create the interface?

Help much appreciated.

I forgot exactly how I did it on my RS6 but just play with the phone's add device and your car's bluetooth system, you should be able to connect them.

From your question, that leads me to think that there must be some sort of appliance needed to create the bluetooth interface, such as a dongle for a laptop. Is that correct? And after this appliance is installed, it should just be a matter of setting the two correctly.

And since I don't know if there is bluetooth in the car, it means I probably need to order said appliance.

Correct.
As far as I know, the 2nd gen xB's don't come stock with blue tooth.
