Car Forum / BMW Cars / May 2008Hands Free Kit - E39
Hello. I'm in the UK and recently bought a 2002 520i ES SE. I looking to add a bluetooth hands free kit for my phone. Any pointers? I've looked at a Parrot but I'm told I need to know whether my stereo is using an optical link. Does this make any sense? How does one tell? The stereo is the factory fit BMW unit, with tape and a 6 CD changer in the boot. The stearing wheel (a sports one, I'm told) has buttons for controlling the phone - which obviously don't do anything at the moment. It'd be nice to put these to use.

It was a kit available from BMW, installation was best left to the professionals. It works quite well with my Motorola cellphone. (Also controls navigation.) Part number ULF 6934552. >> Hello. >> [quoted text clipped - 14 lines] >professionals. It works quite well with my Motorola cellphone. (Also >controls navigation.) Part number ULF 6934552. This can be retro fitted by BMW but it can also be expensive. Try one of the specialist BMW breakers that advertise in the back of Total BMW and BMW car magazines as these often remove such items from crashed vehicles and will be 505 cheaper than new.

Rather I bought an aftermarket nav from Garmin that has bluetooth connectivity. Works well, Nav + B/T + MP3 player (all can connect through radio aux input) for about the same cost as the OEM bluetooth module. R / John |
