Set the volume on your phone when playing through bluetooth. The radio on-off control would give you the ability to instantly turn off the amp instead of fumbling around for your phone. For bluetooth amps that have aux input, the aux input works when there is no bluetooth device connected. You could tap off the center terminal of the volume control on the car radio, and send that signal into the aux input of the external bluetooth amp, and have a functional and modern AM radio.

I got one from Amazon but rather than ruin an AM radio I am mounting it in an existing hole above my brake lever and wiring it into the fuse box a few inches away for power... See my 68 Suburban thread for more info:
