which out there should be avoided or are the ones to go for?
not looking to spend a huge amount, seen couple of offerings from halfrauds for 40 squids or so...

IMHO the Halfrauds ones aren't all that good... I had real problems with the one I had in my Veccy. Personally I'd advise getting either a Nokia one or, from other recommendations, a Parrot one. The Nokia CK-7, which I never had any problems with, even in an old Range Rover, can be had on Fleabay for a very good price. Think I paid about £35 delivered for a brand new kit last time I bought one :y :y :y

will the nokia kit work with other phones or just nokias/
-
As long as you've got Bluetooth kit and, obviously, phone it'll be fine :y :y
I used to use a variety of phones with it :y :y

The Nokia works well with Nokia certified Nokia phones. It does not work well with non Nokia phones, as I have found out to my cost >:(
Nokia believe the echo cancellation technology should be built into the phone. Everyone else reckons it should be built into carkit. So a non Nokia phone (or a non certified Nokia phone) on a Nokia carkit causes an awful echo to the other party.

I didn't have that problem at all with either a Samsung, Motorola or Sony Erricsson phone (or Nokia obviously!)... Must have just been lucky!!! ;) ;) ;)
I stand corrected :y :y

The person in the car doesn't hear it, its the poor sod at other end. Nokia's published solution is only use the CK-7W with phones it's certified to work with. Their unofficial solution, turn volume right down.
And who ever thought Bluetooth Handsfree profile was a standard ;D

I never had any complaints when I used it... I did with the Halfrauds one though!!

Recently bought the Tesco vesion (sun visor mount) BT hands free - sound great to me, but apparently the person on the other ends keeps hearing their own echo..
What did i expect for £20!! Handy for listening to voicemails, i guess!
