bluetooth options

Featured Replies

Hi all i have a mk1 octavia on a 51 plate and i was wondering what were my options for a bluetooth kit for the car as i wouldnt mind one that comes out of the speakers.Anyone have any suggestions or recommendations.

cheers

I use a Nokia Car-K7W (or something like that), which has an additional box to enable it to drive the car speakers. It has bluetooth support, and also a cradle if you have an antique Nokia ;-)

When there is an call in progress, the carkit sends a mute command, which puts the radio into mute mode (almost pointless), and then uses a relay (in the additional box) to divert the sound of the phonecall via the car speakers. One the call finished, the relay clicks back, and the radio comes off mute.

Parrot CK3100 is very good. Fitted one in my wife's Bora, & it's been trouble free. Often see them on Ebay goin for about £60ish. I Have a Pioneer headunit with built in bluetooth in my VRS, which is far superior to the OEM headunit & provides full bluetooth support.

forgot to mention i have the original head unit fitted and a lg phone haha how hard is it to fit ?

I've used a nokia cw-7 or whatever and a kenwood HU with parrot built in, the latter is better call quality. I would change the HU as the OE is poor tbh.
