Car phone
« on: 25 April 2008, 17:58:55 »
Whats the best way to have hands free in the car? I cant wear the ear phone as it cracks me up and kills after a while ( must have funny shaped ears ) Would the factory head unit think its a cctr800 or something? Would that go straight in and work if i could find one? Really need to sort something out as getting 3 points for being on your phone would not be good. Thanks in advance.

Somehow i thought it was just wishfull thinking on my half that it would just go straight in, whats the main problem? Is it an external antenna for signal?

I have a Sony bluetooth kit installed and it works a treat.  There is even a wire loom ready for use above the passenger glove box.  The kit cosy £58 new and delivered.

Cheers
