05 CL65 bluetooth solutions

I believe my car is pre-wired for bluetooth since it has the plug thingee in the console, so I assume all I would need for phone functions would to buy the puck. But I also want to integrate the phone as an MP3 player through bluetooth. My understanding is that the factory MB puck will not do this, and the ViseeO MB-4 one will only do it through FM (crappy sound quality)? Is there any all-in-one solution available for this, or do I have to buy a separate ipod integration kid (iTronics or Dension 500) and then get another bluetooth adapter for that too?

I'm in the same boat with my CL65 and trying to figure out the best way to go.

Has anyone actually tried the ViseeO MB-3 or MB-4 with the FM transmitter. If not how well does the Dension GW51MO2 work in these cars. I see that Enfig has them on sale for $419 + $75 for the BTA-1500 adapter.

What about the navtv MBtooki? I did it on an 06 S class for a friend last year and worked no problem (S55)

I've decided that I don't want bluetooth for calls and MP3s, just for calls. I ordered the itronic from Cartronics for to integrate with an ipod for MP3s. Will get a separate bluetooth puck for calls some time later.

Or not... just heard Cartronics closed down because company founder died? I'm assuming my order's not going to get filled since it's been 2 weeks already.

FWIW, I have a Denison unit in my Audi that I purchased through enfig (just for iPhone integration, didn't need bluetooth). Was very easy to install (DIY) and seems to work great - I've had no issues.

Just get the oem mercedes dock that replaces the phone. That's what I did and it works beautifully and on top of that its oem, and no need to take apart the dash to integrate. Mine looks like this:

Do you happen to have the part number of the factory ipod integration kit that plugs into the back of the radio?
