Default Re: Parrot Bluetooth carkit

there are a couple of threads here as well as a few pictures in the "share" section. According to the member who had it installed it seems like a straightforward installation if you have any car stereo install experience. It will require you to pull the unit out of the dash as there really is no other way to tap into the system without accessing the harnesses in the rear. It is pretty much just tapping into a couple of wires. The risk is, of course, tapping into the wrong wires! The LCD screen will display the name/number of the caller....the unit you mentioned also offers picture ID I think. Either way, wiring it to the Nav system in the FEH/MMH will mute the radio and allow you to hear the caller through the stereo speakers. You will also need to install the provided microphone somewhere.
