V60 Phone

I want to put a phone in my car but hate to pay the dealer retail of $1600+. Does anyone know where these can be bought at a discount.

Blue-tooth won't be compatable will it, in a 2003? Also, what does Blue-tooth do? (I'm clueless on that technology)

Yes, but Voice Activation is not because it is tied in with the Command System.

As I understand it Command will not be available for the 2003s at all. And voice activation won't be either. But you still have steering wheel controls and speakerphone.

I already use a V60 phone and happen to like it ... there are newer ones with more bells and whistles ........ anyway, I opted for the V60 phone install (dealer did it) and am very happy. The reception is much better (the phone connects to an external antenna) and the integration with the audio system display and steering wheel is flawless and user friendly!!
