Doubt it would work on modern cell network.
No more analog network.
You can rig up a Parrot Bluetooth setup....
there are instructions on benzworld from long ago..
I always wanted to do that and never got around to it.

I didn't exactly want it to work just so I had it as a piece from the vehicle

All I remember is that it was Motorola, not a razor, and
dont' remember the model. Check the really old threads.

I still have my original phone and cradle...
Just sitting in a box in the basement.

I would check eBay if you’re looking for the nostalgia.

Really I suppose you wouldn't want to sell it would you?

If you still have the stock radio, get the Argos MB-1. The site that makes them (www.eiskits.com) seems to have died though. This puck adds full Bluetooth and has full integration. That includes the TEL button, numeric keypad, cluster display, and steering wheel buttons. There might be the occasional unit on eBay.

That phone was the Motorola v60. It had a stainless steel skin and was an Excellent phone. I had several, may even have the last one I used, but I'm not sure how compatible it would be. My only regret when I bought my C230 Sportscoupe was not springing for the phone package. MB offered a fully integrated wired system with a branded phone, display, stored numbers, hands free, the works.. I cheaped out and kicked myself until reliable bluetooth headsets were available. When I got my GLK, with full bluetooth, I was doubly chagrinned...

I’m not 100% sure my 2005 would be the original phone to your 2001...it could be, admittedly I don’t know enough about the pre facelift nuances.

I do want to keep all of my OEM gear...
Sorry.

I’d use eBay if you’re seeking a V60...
