Parrot mki9200 in HSE
I have a 54 plate HSE with harmon kardon logic 7, unfortunately I have no Bluetooth and although I know I can source and fit a d4 module etc but I would like to Bluetooth stream music from my iPhone.
I like the look of the parrot system but I can't find a definitive answer on the net as to what lead to fit to enable me to stream music through all of my speakers.
Has anyone successfully done this?

pretty sure the control box has an Aux out, so a normal 3.5mm Male to male lead should work, plug it in to the aux socket behind the centre console or hard wire it to the back of the stereo.Bodsys Brake Bible

Sorry I think I may of worded my issue badly.
When I said lead I meant patch/sot lead. I tried an a cable from my aux port in the centre console and I only got sound through my front speakers, this is something I don't want to happen with the parrot kit fitted, I want the sound to go through all speakers when I transmit it via Bluetooth, I would like to know which patch/sot lead people have used previously?
I get sound through all the speakers with the aux port. Are you sure the fader is not set to the front in the "Source Tone Memory"?Current: Discovery 3 06MY (55 reg) HSE Auto Zambezi Silver Allisport Fast Road Intercooler, V8 Brakes, Silicone IC Hoses, EGRs Blanked, Remapped, De-Cat pipe, FBHIC

kram 67687S/X499V1/DA201 sot lead
Designed specifically for logic 7 system. The streaming is excellent. Good instructions on how to install it.
You do have to set something in the parrot. Mute on streaming I think but I can't remember. I also bought the screen extension cable and mounted the screen on the roof light unit.

Perfect, thanks for that, just what I wanted to hear.
Does anyone have a dab interface fitted? I'm curious as to how they fit, particularly if I can have both the parrot and one of those installed at the same time.

I fitted this today with the Kram lead, relatively straight forward but it doesn't cut the stereo out when I get a call? And the ringtone on the parrot is very quiet?
Have I connected something wrong?

Have you connected the 3 mute fly wires?
You also have to set "mute on streaming" to on within the parrot.
Music will stream through the aux channel on the headunit.
I cant find the installation manual but will keep having a look.

Thank you, I'd appreciate that.
The three fly wires, are these the ones that I have to add the cars plug? If so, yes

That's the ones. Try the mute on streaming setting. I think that sorts it

I've got that selected and still no joy.
I'll keep searching, surely I'm not the only one with these issues

The only thing I did different was,
The blue cable with bullet connectors was connected from the factory - this produced no power at all.
I connected the red bullet connector to the blue and it gave me permanent power - my Mrs would drain the car in a day without a doubt!
I ran a switched 12v from the cigarette lighter to the blue cable and this has the unit working.
I can't think of anything I've done differently or wrongly to give me the issues I have?
Radio not muting when an incoming call is occurring
Low ringer volume
Low Bluetooth music volume

I can't find the install guide but it sounds like it came with your leads anyway.
Is the hk unit displaying "phone mode" whenever you try to do anything with the parrot such as streaming?
Mute on streaming might need to be off. It's been a few years since I did this.

No the headunit doesn't display anything, to use the Bluetooth music stream I have to use the aux button on the headunit.

I've just tried mute on streaming off-no joy.
I can only hear from the hands free when the car headunit is on aux mode?
