Aftermarket Bluetooth Question for 07 ML350

Hi,

A few years ago I purchased my 2007 ML350 and I intended to install the bluetooth module. I put it off for a bit but now I would like to ditch my visor bluetooth, however I called my MB dealer and the price for the bluetooth OEM is $595.

Does anyone know of a cheaper aftermarket bluetooth module that would be able to connect to the car's stereo, and maybe use the phone buttons on the dash?

Thanks

The ViseeO MB2 - less than half the price. Available on our site.

I do not have the connector in my car's arm rest...
So I'm assuming I do not have the UHI...

If the dealer says they can install the whole system AND the puck for that price.... DO IT!!!
However, you will probably be told about 3 times that amount when it comes down to it. The iTronic is a great solution, that is much less than the original kit, has more features and sounds better too.... But it is a little more than what you were quoted.

Without the connector in the arm rest foget about going bluetooth. It will cost you a few thousand to install this. If you have this connector you can buy two different styles from Ebay price ranging from $199 to $300 from used and also new units.

The iTronic is SIGNIFICANTLY less than dealer and COMPLETELY replicates all of its functions for much less. It also no longer requires the puck or to give up arm rest storage.

A word about ebay pucks (if you had the UHI/MHI in the armrest). ... We are the sole importer to North America of the widely used Viseeo pucks. We are expressly forbidden by the manufacturer to sell on ebay. So any unit purchased new on ebay, comes without without any warranty (regardless of what the add says). Used ones this does not apply to of course. This does not apply to the less popular MB branded pucks either.
