Ive often wondered what that little grill thing was.  ::) ;D
Will probably go for the Nokia and then ask lots of stupid questions on how to make it work.  :y ;D

The parrot is the best option, with the autoleads fitting kit, plug n play, 

I sold the one I had in my mv6, to a member, if he is still on the forum, he might be able to assist, it was plugged into the radio loom, and a connection to the phone plug under/behind the glove box.

Aye, Parrott wired into the prewiring is a decent option as well.  Parrott wired in to the speaker wires is wank.

I have a Jabra Freeway, £65 at Halfords, which works very well.

No leads in the car required as you just take it indoors for a via USB charge that gives you talktime of 12 hours.  It just clips onto the sun visor, and with simple set up instructions it is all go! :y

Too much fart-arsing around.  I'd forget to take the thing in to charge.

Decent brands for that type from £20, unbranded Chinese from about £8. £65 is excessive for it.

I’ve got one which plugs into the cigar socket  no wires, just tune it into an fm frequency on your radio and  Bluetooth it to your iPhone  and you’re up and running. Has two usb charging puts on it too. I got mine from Trago mills about £15

Sure that's not for music?  This discussion is about phone calls ;)

It's an fm transmitter that you tune your radio in to. Then you can, theoretically, play music from your phone through the speakers or use it for phone calls.

But fairly useless for phone, unless you happening to be listening to music off the phone...   ...as it wont automatically get the HU to switch the Radio, and retune to defined frequency.... ;)

Got a Parrott CK3100 fitted in my Elite and has worked fine .Unsure how it was wired in but invoice shows a Autolead part number and remember the guy saying it had been picked up at the Nokia hardwired part of the cars own wiring under the glovebox.

Microphone fitted by interior mirror and little display just under main headlight switch.

When used it auto disconnects the audio part from the radio/cd player and sound comes through car speakers .

All worked fine...…...although have a slight issue with internal of NCDC since getting nav back working so need the skills of TB to sort it out

I also have the Parrot 3100, works well in my 3.2. :y
