I just purchased a Parrot CK3100 bluetooth car kit. The installation instructions that come with it are terrible, and there is limited additional information on the Parrot website. I had no problem removing the radio (quite simple actually), but can not figure out how to attach the wiring harnesses that came with the CK3100 to the radio (I have a 2006 MCS with H/K- have a DICE IPod connector attached to the CD changer connector in the boot). Does anyone have any experience with this? Do I need to purchase an adaptor or splice and hardwire connections? If I can't get the necessary info, I guess I will have to take it to an installer. Thanks.

In addition to the wiring that came with the Parrot kit, do you have the MINI interface wiring? I think from what you've said, you don't, and this is why it seems almost impossible. The interface connects the Parrot up to the factory stereo with no splicing needed. You can buy it here.

No I did not have the interface wiring, but I have now ordered it from New MINIStuff. Thanks for your help.
