anyone install a bluetooth car kit in their CLS yet?
i was just wondering which brands/models you all have been using. i know there are tons out there and my friend put a motorola kit in his S600 (with it's own speaker) and it works amazingly well, but i have a Treo 650 and so i don't have many options since my phone doesn't pair well with most kits. Palm One recommends the Parrot CK3000 or CK3100. i bought a CK3000 kit on ebay and didn't realize it doesn't have it's own speaker and has to be integrated into the car's radio (in order to mute it and hear people through the car's speakers). I didn't know this was going to be a problem until i went to get it installed and they said it's not possible because these cars have fiber optic wiring. they did, however, recommend me to a custom shop in houston who they said could do it. i went to them and they said they could make it happen for $300 and it would take then 3-5 hours to install it depending on if they have any issues. I do feel comfortable with them because they sell Parrot kits and they work on a lot of high end cars, but i was just wondering if anyone has had it done and if it worked well. TIA.

I have one of the newer Blackberry phones and had the Motorola Bluetooth put in 2 weeks ago...works like a charm....also had Sirius radio put in and K-40 radar detection/deflection...was never a radar fan, but this thing comes with a guarantee that if I get a ticket, they pay for it!
