Phone Option Confirmation (on a 2002 C-Class)

I have a c230 Coupe and was wondering how I can confirm I have all the bits and pieces I need for the Bluetooth Puck before I go buy it..The thing is I don't have the phone cradle in my armrest.

But here is what I do have:

* The wire and Plug that the cradle would use in the space under the armrest (you know the compartment that you can get into by holding down the center console/armrest adjuster)

* The Phone menu option on my computer/console system

* Some vents (for like a mic) on the light housing above the mirror.

What I don't have

* Teleaid or its button
* The Cradle that would go in the center concole armrest..

So am I just missing the Cradle or is there a module/other stuff that may be missing and the factory just ran the cradle wire to save time should a dealer add the hands free in later?

Thanks
Josh
PS: thanks for the help on the cam Adjuster post from earlier.. as you might have guessed I decided to keep the C230 coupe as the machanic seemed to think the cam timing adjuster was a freak failure and the rest of the engine seemed good...

It is a known defect and the factory doesnt seem motivated to put out a recall.
