C500 Bluetooth Hands-free full car kit recommendations pleas

[Guest goosegog]

Hi there. I'm about to receive a C500 and was wondering if anyone can recommend a Bluetooth in-car kit at a good price? I'm looking for one which will mute my stereo and work with my C500. I don't want an ear piece!

Many thanks for any replies

Look at the parrot bluetooth ck3X00 series.

Im am just waiting to get one at the moment.

Do a search on the forums and you find some info on them.

I have a Parrot ck3000 which does exactly what you want.

[Guest goosegog]

Thanks for the replies guys. Will do

[Guest goosegog]

Um, I have some new questions!

If I want Sat Nav AND hands free calling, do I need both the Copilot Bluetooth GPS QuickStart AND the Parrot CK3300 GPS or do I only need one GPS device?

Many thanks in advance for your help

btw - wtf? No cradle?!?!

[Guest travisb]

You need both. The Parrot acts as your GPS device (a la Fortuna Clip On). Co-Pilot is the software that interacts with it (via Bluetooth) on your phone.

Remember to buy the software only version of Co-Pilot!

Did any of you guys (or anyone reading) fit their own Parrot? I got mine today and fitted it (power, batt, earth, speaker connections, plugged in etc) but I have no sound from the unit. My stereo sounds fine so the speaker connections are going in and out the splitter they supply but when the unit mutes my head unit it fails to send any feed to my speakers. Any ideas?

What are the green and brown line in input wires for?

Also - how do you get the C500 to allow the Parrot access to its phone book?

Thanks!

can anyone tell me if the Parrot's "perform" or are able to work with the auto-answer facility over bluetooth for the c500. I ahve a CK-7W that does everything bar actually auto-answer calls over bluetooth...

Travis, have you had your parrot box updated or is it a new one?

I bought the ck3000 a few years ago for my T68 but haven't managed to get it to work with any of my SPV's. Maybe if i send it to be updated it'll work?

Please tell me, can you "Voice Dial"? And does it upload your contacts from the phone?

My Parrot doesn't answer calls automatically, yours?
