i believe we need the "completer kit" and then a cradle. The cradle can be for a specific phone or they have a new bluetooth puck as well. Not sure about the part numbers but I've been quoted $1,700-$2,500 to get it done.

sounds like you already have the completer kit installed and need either a phone specific cradle or the bluetooth puck.
