Parrot MKi9200

I'm looking at fitting a Parrot to my E46 M3. Main reason is to have bluetooth capability for my iPhone - but I'm also interested in this model due to the ability to play music through the cars speakers from my iPhone. Im not sure if this system also charges the iPhone??

Anyway - im just wondering if anyone has this set up or has any experience of it? I have a 3GS iPhone so want to make sure its compatible.

Anyone know the best place to buy one from. Is this the best Parrot system on the market?

Also - does anyone know a good installer in the London or Essex area??

Any info or advice would be much appreciated.

Steve

Back OT. I fitted one in my ED30 when I first got it, works OK, 80% of the time, does it all OK, but nothing really well! I ended up taking it out and putting in the factory NAV, MDI and BT. I would recommend a CK3200 Parrot and then fit a dension 100, or what ever fits the BMW, as I suspect you too will be disappointed with the MKi9200.

Just my tuppence, hope it helps

Love the look of the CSL styling and wheels and much prefer the boot and front bumper to that of the M3, hence the reason for me wanting to modify as i have and intend to. Have no intention of trying to masquerade it as a CSL. Ive owned TWO CSL's so i know exactly how good they are and a basic M3 they are not. The same way that i also therefore know that a modified M3 does not a CSL make!! Ya get me bruv!!??

Calm down bro...I didn't say you wanted to masquerade it round as a CSL!!? I originally got it mixed up with another CSL on here that was for sale (Amar's) so accidently referred to yours as the CSL, then got called out by Will and Carl the eagle eyes that they are and backed myself up by calling it a lookalike.

No hard feelings...ya get me?
