Factory fit phone doofer
« on: 11 December 2006, 19:18 »
I've got a factory fit phone prep, but don't know how to sort it for my Sony Ericsson 810i.

Any clues?

You need to order a cradle, for your phone.  Then place cradle on phone prep and plug your phone in. Volia, I have the phone prep with my nokia 6230i cradle.  Cost in the region of £100 approx.

Thanks for the tip  :smiley:

Where can I get a cradle (pls don't say the dealer :cry:), are they specific to VW phone prep, and are they easy to fit?

Piece of cake to fit.  I believe you can buy them from dealer or other sources.
It simply slides on, thats it.  I am not sure about vw specific, as I own other cars with bluetooth phone prep factory.  I'll take some pics of mine and put up to show you.

Also vw re a bot slow to update to all the new handsets.

Nice one mate - thanks  :smiley:

I have a Sony Ericsson W810i which has been around for a while now, so they must have the bits for it.  :undecided:

RS4...  :drool: :drool: :drool: :drool: :drool: :drool:

I drive an RS4 too... in my dreams, but at least that way I can enjoy it and not have to worry about the steep insurance and fuel bills  :grin: :grin: :grin:
