Question iPhone Phonbook syncing with car??

I have the EDGE iPhone, syncing with bluetooth is not a problem but how can you sync your phonebook to the onboard contacts list? I've seen this done on BMW's but don't see any option to export contacts to car HD.

You can't sync the iphone phonebook with the car unfortunately. (Next time please search the forums as this was covered quite a few times)

As a work-around, I borrowed my buddy's blackberry, backed it up, then did a hard reset. Once the phone was back to stock, I synced the blackberry with my computer and in turn, synced the blackberry with the C. Once the contacts were transfered, I did another hard reset on the blackberry and then restored the phone from the original backup. DONE and DONE.

You can substitute the blackberry with any available phone that is able to sync contacts with the C. Good luck!

Thanks! I guess it will work with any other smartphone.
