Thread: D3 Phone Kit

I went down the same route and do not think you can get the bluetooth loom post factory installed. Ended up with a Parrot MKi9200 installed which is pretty good, but not perfect with the iPhone4 (very very minor things). Just make sure you read the instructions on getting the software updated as soon as installed.

I installed a Nokia bluetooth kit but could never figure out how to mute the radio.

The HSE D3 we recently purchased also has the talk button on the L/H/S of the steering wheel as well as the other buttons on the dash, is this likely to mean it does have the factory phone kit already installed?

I had the household electronics expert (the wife who loves reading manuals which I don't) try to sort it out but even she can't make head nor tail of it.

I don't know it this helps but this D3 also has the Hi ICE logic 7 stereo system or what ever it is called fitted?

cheers,
Terry

Hi all,
If the Green/Red buttons for the phone are not installed on the R/H/S of the steering wheel then the vehicle does NOT have the phone kit.
The stereo's have this phone button as part of the unit regardless whether you have the phone or not.

Yes you can install the factory bluetooth kit, but it is pricey just for a bluetooth kit, fitted around the $1600.00 mark.

Cheers

Yikes!

An aftermarket kit is looking pretty good then! Any suggestions as to a good brand/model? I need it to pair with an iPhone 4.....

Parrot MKi9200 is made for the iPhone & has cables specifically for charging & connecting. It is a pretty good kit, but just depends on if you just want to have a phone connection or something a little bit better.

Cheers

Hi Sniegy,

Quick question on this - is there a new steering wheel included in the dash at that price or is it just the kit???

Hi Dom, No it doesnt include a new steering wheel
But does include a new switch pack that includes the new switches on the side of the steering wheel.

Cheers
