With our 07 525, do I need to have any certain software installed in order to use the Bluetooth that came in the car? Or , do I just need to confirm whether or not the phone pairs? From what I read, the only add on part would be the cradle, which boosts signal and charges the phone, which appears to be an option.
Thank You

No software is required to use Bluetooth. Just see if your phone will pair. And, you are right about the cradle. What phone do you have?

Thank You for the response. It's a Nokia 6133. Not even sure if there's a cradle for it yet. I will try to pair it first. We're on T Mobil, but I don't want to extend a contract, therefore I'm trying to stay away from just T Mobile phones. If the new 6133 won't work, I will be looking for another phone that can be moved from T Mob to another carrier later.

Well, the 6133 paired up and the phonebook logged in, but now the problem will be finding a cradle for this phone.
