Parrot as a cheap iPhone connector for touch screen FFRR?

Hi, My car has native bluetooth but I want to be able to send music from my iPhone to it. Parrot MKi kits look like a good alternatives to LR kit, no? any experiences? 2008 TDV8 VOGUE - Buckingham Blue on Sand

Do you have an AUX-IN? If so just get a Bluetooth adapter (e.g. Jabra Clipper) which can be powered via USB. .
Experience is the only genuine knowledge, but as time passes, I have forgotten more than I can remember Wink

The aux-in is on the central armrest/console, better seen from the rear seats. MY 2010 5.0 SC Galway green and sand interior!!
Have the Faultmate MSV2 Extreme to be tinkering with the settings etc. !!

Thanks for your feedback but you seem to have a non touch screen RR. Not sure everything works the same on touch screen ones. 2008 TDV8 VOGUE - Buckingham Blue on Sand

TBH the LR kit if you can get a cheap one is better IMO as you will find it more integrated and a good selling point come resale time. FFRR MY06 facelift With TDV8 Alloys Zeros/ATR's
Mantec Sump Guard, Rigid Load liner, MY10 BT upgrade.

All the touch screen cars can use the LR ACM. The early ones need to have the upper dash pad removed for installation to access the back of the head unit. Later cars 07> have a connector behind the glove box. That is the only difference.

Ok thanks for the precision.
SO this means nobody has done a Parrot install in their RR? 2008 TDV8 VOGUE - Buckingham Blue on Sand
