Which phone connector is this?

I'm trying to figure out what bluetooth adapter to look for, but I'm unable to find any information on this connector type.




At the other end of the cradle, there is a button which (assumably) releases the phone from the carkit. That side has some contacts too.

What connector is this and which bluetooth adapter do I need to use?

Thanks!

Nope, that doesn't look like it's the right one.
A female slot and antenna connection is present in the car's adapter, so the phone must have male counter parts, which this phone does not have.

Also, the connector is removable.

The article below lists somekind of COMMAND version of the Motorola Timeport

Well I didn't quite find it yet, here is another picture of the complete cradle



Please note, the connector that is not attached to the wire, is the connector at the phone's end that I'm looking for. I don't know what the deal is with this cradle, but it seems that it is rather unique

Are you just trying to make your phone look as it was in 2000 ? As Benz/Ninja told you, it will never work on actual networks. I upgraded my 2001 to Bluetooth (for North America), with the help of Keith Valentine "CellGuy" and Skyview.

Well I do have the wish to make the car as original as possible, but buying a phone that can't be used anymore goes a little too far.
I'm trying to get somekind of bluetooth dongle that I can use to connect my phone up to. If only there was some guide that lists all the phone connection types and how to upgrade them/replace them. I've found a few, but they didn't list this connection.

This is worth another post. I've opened WIS to check for retrofitment of some telephone systems and I finally encountered the telephone that should be in here.
It's the Nokia 3110.
