Default Parrot kit for v70

Looking to get a parrot kit for my 2009 v70.
I can't see anywhere any write ups ect that anyone has done so?

I only need the parrot for calls no music ect so what system is best? Also what harness do I need?

Any hints and tips are welcome.

I always thought every R design came with Bluetooth as a part of the package but not on mine....

I had a parrot in my 2008 V70 SE Lux ,prior to that it was fitted in my 2004 P2 V70 .It worked really well only being used for calls . I bought a interface harness' for both cars on eBay ,not expensive . I would recommend the Parrot . I sold the V70 recently and left the Parrot in the car as new car has Bluetooth fitted.My son had the 2009/10 SE and that had the phone option but needed its own son card. Later models have Bluetooth as standard I believe.

The kit I had was the same as in the link in the above post. I looked on line for the interface harness .Can't give any pics as car was traded a couple of months ago.

Just to add weight, I'd recommend Parrot. I had one some years ago and it was a superb hands free unit, the best after market unit I've ever had.

On mine I found I had to speak in an American accent to call by voice recognition before I Actually called the Vet instead of the Doctors Surgery!
Mind you HE could have seen me right away!

I ended up going with the Mki9200. Its brilliant for calls but not so good for music via bluetooth, havnt installed the aux/usb as my car has got a aux input and dont use that as much.

On the othet hand I have another one for sale. I bought the one I have fitted to my car from halfords and someone got back to me about one that was cheap and bought that too to either fit/use for spares or sell again.

The mic is missing and a harness too. Im sure they can be picked up for a few quid. £30 + pp if your interested. Thats what I bought it for.

There was a Autoleads 06-018 fitted to my car as the last owner removed his parrot kit but left this behind.

Mail me if your interested
