Has anyone had any experience changing a factory fit phone prep kit? I have one and with a bit of research found out that Elan don't make cradles for the kit any more so it's a bit useless. I'm thinking of upgrading to a THB Bury CarTalk kit rather than go the bluetooth option. Seeing as I already have the leather mounting pod for the cradle to attach to I thought I'd make use of it. I'm fairly confident about changing the kit, seen a few articles on removing the dash and getting behind the RCD300 but what I can't seem to find out about is the telemute cable (or whatever it's called). The current kit obviously has one as it uses the stereo speakers and not an external speaker but I don't know whether this cable is suitable for the THB kit. Also, the mic that the currently installed kit is cut into the little tweeter grill by the interior lights so I'm hoping I can keep that mic and not have to worry about finding how the cables are routed.
Anyone have any advice? :smiley:
