Australia Adding Bluetooth to factory Navgiation

I am about to buy a second hand R56 Cooper S. It has the factory navigation installed. Is it possible to buy the Bluetooth add-on?

It might be possible to have an OEM Bluetooth system retro-fitted, but it's so tightly integrated with the rest of the car that lots of different components need to be replaced. Estimates that I've seen have been in the USD$1100 range, just for parts! There's no retrofit kit available, like there was for the R53's.

You're probably better off looking at some of the aftermarket kits, many are listed at: NewMINIStuff.com

There's also the mObridge kit, which is probably the closest to OEM behaviour, and also adds a few other niceties, but it's also pretty pricey.

Curious if your cell works with the Second Gen MINI?
