Morning Everyone,

Looking at purchasing a bluetooth unit for the Mrs's car, not sure what to go for, can either get a Parrot or something along those line or replace the head unit and get one with it built in and get proper ipod control etc and it mean there isnt something else on the dash?

What would people recommend in the way of the unit and which would be the best thign to do?

Budget is £250-£300

Thanks,
pow

That was just top end of my budget if it was to be a new stereo as it would need to be double din

I have this unit! Its superb.

Wire the green (handbrake) wire to earth and you can play DVDS whilst driving.

I have mine setup through the parrot car kit as well and its really easy to use.

Displays your phonebook and recent calls made/missed as well and of course, can charge your phone through the front facing USB.

£252 at halfords http://www.halfords.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/product_storeId_10001_catalogId_10151_productId_878181_langId_-1_categoryId_265857

3% Quidco on that as well ha.

Yet to try it on iphone 5, but works fine on ipods and iphone 4s
