Voice Recognition System Q's

From what i found searchin there was one post saying it was an option up to 2004 only. Is this true? Is it possible to install on an 06? Anyone have an estimated price on this? The Hands-Free Communication System on the 06 models is for the phone oonly right? This is a nice option but im looking for something compaired to the new ACURA TL with NAVI voice control. Is this possible and is it going to cost me an arm and a leg? Thanks JIm

USA cars are all prewired for voice control. All you need to do is buy the module for the back of the car, the lever for the steering column and have someone configure the fibre optics for you. The last step is coding the system in diagnostics to make it work.

The control functions for Euro are not the same as for the USA. The Euro version does everything including destination input, phone, radio, TV, CD and so on. The USA version does not appear to have TV or destination input. But then you also have SDAR (sat radio) in the USA.

So even the 06's are prewired? So what control do you use if its not an option here and the euro is different? An 04 down? I only need 2 componets, install and configure and we set? Its this a 1,000 down project or a bigger project? So it should control all sterio stuff and some navi stuff? Thanks JIM

Its not expensive and it takes the same amount of time in cars of all models. You should contact SUNMAN as he has several units for sale.

The hookup for the voice control is in the car too. I dont know what the USA version does since I know that the Euro version does more and can only work properly with Euro head units.

Sunman has both the old version (pre-05) and current version units on sale. He was trying a few things out and has several modules on hand.
