What phone does one need for C320 installed mobil comm syste
Hey, new to the forum but not to benz. Just purchase a 2001 c320 for my GF, and the car had the voice control and phone system installed, but no phone. I couldn't really complain, got a very good deal. Anyway, does anyone know what I can activate, and do I actually need the handset unit? What are the options for adding a phone to the system. It looks like, and coreect me if wrong ,but only motorola handsets will work?
Does anyone know what needs to be added to get it to work? Will the voice control system work WITHOUT the phone? Radio, other things?
Where is the best place to get a phone that would work with it? A quick call to local dealer said "500$" for a unit, and maybe more. I was going to call mbusa and ask what the deal was.
thanks for the tips, and direct

Try searching ebay. I often see people selling just the handset. If the cradle and everything else is installed, it's a plug-and-play deal. However, you MUST use an mb branded phone. Buying a run-of-the-mill v.60 or timeport (I think MY01 used timeport) will not function with the car.
