Best Bluetooth??

Hi guys,

My girlfriend is on the look out for a 09 320i coupe with the hope of buying one in the next week or two. One of the options she insists on having is built in bluetooth however alot of the cars I have seen do not have this fitted as standard, does anybody know of a good bluetooth kit that can be got and fitted? preferably one that has equal quality to BMWs factory fitted one.

I would be very greatful if someone could help me!

P.S. if anybodys knows of a nice 09 plate 320 coupe for sale please let me know....

Thanks guys

Yes this is what I have got fitted to my 320i and it works pretty well.

Not quite as good as the OEM bluetooth though because you do not get the callers number appearing on the radio/idrive. You also don't get the fancy shark fin aerial. I would hold out for one with OEM bluetooth if I was you.

To be perfectly honest I would also get a diesel (even the 318d)m rather than a 320i as they are much nicer cars. There is also a thread on here about 320i problems and it is worrying reading.

Where did you mount the screen? Have you got any pics?

I've been thinking about getting one of these for my VW but saw some poor reviews.

I have no screen, its mki9000, mki9100 got screen. To be honest £20 difference between mki9000 and mki9100, but like more mki9000, it looks more like OEM.
You get wireless control with it, which you can stick anywhere inside car, mine next to armrest, more like idrive.
