I dont have BT as a factory option, I was wondering what installs had been carried out by Forum members as alternatives to BMW's integrated system.

I looked at the parrot and found the BLNC to be a better unit, in both looks and functions. the unit runs and when i get a call it mutes the radio and states "call from Home" or so forth all voice, it runs thru the car speakers and i had them install two seperate speakers under each dash so that if i do not want the radio muted it runs thru those speakers as well. the Voice is clear and the sound is really loud if need be. It also tells you if you have texts messages or Voicemails all verbally. This unit currently is paired to my Razor v3, and my Nokia 8800. My wife also has ber blackberry and her Motorola 330 as well.. You can pair up to 5 phones. Great unit, I would go qwith this over the Parrot. the Parrot is cheaper, but the BLNC is worth the price difference.
