Can anyone recommend one, and has anyone fitted one themselves?
The type i'm after is the 'hidden'type which fits inline with the car stereo with a simple controller on the dash. Mutes the stereo when making receiving calls etc and runs through the car speakers
be grateful for any guidance on this subject whatsoever including details on installation, links to kit sites etc and details of kits available
Dead easy. There is a yellow wire from the Nokia... connect a spade connector onto the end and it links to a male spade connector on the reverse of the Kenwood
I couldn't get the speakers to word but perhaps I was doing something wrong?

I fitted a Parrot CK3200 bluetooth hands free to my Hi-line Sat Nav, which routes telephone calls through the speakers, mutes the radio, pauses a tape or CD, and allows hands free voice comand dailing. comes complete with a small colour screen which will also display address book pictures if your phone has this function.
I've got a 2005 ZT-t with basic radio-cd, I have fitted a Parrot CK3100 which is superb, this can be fitted in about 30 minutes, my radio has sio connectors which are simply a plug in job, if you do not have these I think you can buy adaptor leads, I can thoroghly recommend this set up for about £75.
How To Fit A Parrot CK3200 phone kit to Hi-Line Cars
Unfortunately due to server issues, I am unable to post the "How To" complete with pictures here, and without them , it makes it hard to follow, so in answer to your request Dr. Dave sadly I can't.

Just the Mute Wire? (Quick replies please doing tonight)
Hi,
Going to fit my Parrot Bluetooth in to the MG ZT 260 SE.
All I want to know as not fitting the kit that brings voice via in car speakers is where the mute wire is on the back...dont want to cut anything obviously!
I have the kit from My Rover 75 but its been butchered over the years to fit other cars. So just going to fit the standard Phone kit Speaker under the well.
Theres a yellow mute wire that gives eath out signal to tell the radio to mute..just want to know what to connect it to..
Speady reply would be great as going to start fitting after Tea tonight!!
Rossy depending on your radio you may have ISO (i think they are called) connectors, in which case it is simply a plug in job, which will then mute/use existing speakers - much neater and clearer than an extra speaker.
Mine was a 2005 and had ISO connectors, easiest way is to remove your radio and have a look, only takes 5 minutes. If you have got these it will be simple, if not I think you can get adaptor leads from car hifi places possibly (don'y know about price though)
Parrot ls 3200 bluetooth installed yesterday - superb bit of kit and pairs with the Blackberry pearl instantly.
Slight niggle, which the technician has had to go away and find out about, is a 'popping' sound through the car speakers just before receiving or making a call...? He's due to comeback to me in the next day or so
Any ideas...?
BTW cost £250 installed and watch the guy doing it - did a top job in under an hour. He commented on how good the ZTT is at all levels whcih is pleasing coming from a genuine guy who deals with loads of car types. (it's amazing how many loose and spare clips and fasteners are left under the trim when the car was put together!!!)
Although i went through a company for the install and paid a premium, If anyone's interested he's in the Ascot area and does private work for all car electronics and audio sat nav systems, pls PM me for his details. A top guy - and cheap if you go direct!!
Be grateful for opinions on the popping noise?
