I was just given my new mini for christmas and it never came with the bluetooth or dab is it posable to get these installed after also what would the price range be? i have the stearing wheel with the phone functions on but im not sure if thats just standard anyhows.

the multi function steering wheel is extra. U can get DAB installed I believe through the use of a tuner box like tis one http://caraudiosecurity.com/shop/pro...s_id/4623.html As for the bluetooth i doubt u can get the factory one put in for anything less than a rip off. its overpriced as a factory option as it is. Best bluetooth ive seen is this NewMINIStuff.com It works through the stereo etc like a factory fitted one

thanks for the plug,
yes we can fit bluetooth

Your dealer should be able to retro fit DAB for you, if not we can fit kenwood DAB but £££

If you don't have the multi function steering wheel whats the best way around getting a bluetooth phone system into the new r56 cooper S???

mikeythemini · Jan 1st, 2007, 10:23 PM

You can fit pretty much any bluetooth kit into the car - just be carefull with the wiring

Hi Mikey,

When will you be doing the kit for existing parrot owners, and how many notes roughly will it be.

Dazmac13 · Jan 2nd, 2007, 03:32 PM

But if you don't have the MFSW fitted how can you operate the one on your website that works through the stereo etc????The parrot evo i think its called. I want one that works through my nav.stereo on my R56 MCS but i dont have the MFSW

About £280 I think?

fozzy2k · Jan 11th, 2007, 09:21 PM

Its actually quite reasonably priced. A lot of aftermarket kits are a lot more expensive
