Title: In-car phone
Post by: chris7of9 on 31 August 2010, 18:40:08

Hi
  New here, I have just bought a 2.5 Elite, very pleased with it. It has the phone built into the Audio unit, I phoned Vauxhall to ask what sim I need and where to get it (credit card size), because of it's age (1999) they couldn't help. Any idea's please
Regards
Chris

Welcome to the mele  :y
If you remove the buttons from the front - little round push button on the right - the SIM lives at the bottom  of the recess. O2 & Vodaphone are the only cards that work.  :y  :y

What model Radio? And year of car?

I have a CCRT700, if yours is the same you need the credit card size holder which takes the mini SIM card, can't remember where I got that, but try Vodafone or O2 as they are the only ones which support this system.

HTH

Note to self. Must type faster.

Hi
  Thanks for the very quick response, would I be right in assumming it's a standard sim not popped out of it's card?

Sorry didn't note that. I guess yours is the same as mine, a CCRT700 so what I said applies.
