Has anybody in the North West had a bluetooh Parrot fitted? (no jokes please)
If so, can you recommend fitter? / any issues?

I have just ordered the O.E. Bluetooth PTI kit from Yeovil LR for mine, will have a go at fitting it over the weekend. Not cheap at around £300 but at least it will look standard. Will post pics of fitting etc once it's in.

I will be pulling the eBay auction, need much more thinking time. Had ordered the PTI before I had the wobble over keeping the G4 so may as well fit it.

Anybody tried one of these? It's a Parrot Easydrive, and is supposed to give excellent sound quality and voice dial features. Feel it might look a bit naff, though. It's nice that it's portable, but you don't have to worry about recharging it, unlike most of the sun visor models.

The Parrot sun visor mount model did well in an Autoexpress test last week.
See http://www.autoexpress.co.uk/products/prod..._kits.html

You can get full details at http://www.parrot.biz/usa/products/parrotminikit/ or here for the easydrive model http://www.parrot.biz/usa/products/easydrive/

The minikit sounds like a good unit, but you either have to remember to keep charging it, or run a power cable up to it. Also, you have to remember to switch it on each time you get in the car. With the easydrive, it automatically switches on with the ignition.

I got a parrot, neat little unit, i've fitted it to my Brodit ipaq holder/charger.
Do a lot of calls on the road and it works great.
can even play my ipaq CD collection card through the parrot bluetooth.
