missing phone; side grill removal

Lease was up on my M6 so I bought an '07 SL55 (previously had a CL55). The phone is gone but the cradle is there, and it has voice command. Is it worth getting anothr phone? No bluetooth?
I'm also replacing the fender side grills. They don't come out after loosening the 2 torx screws. Are there clips behind the grills thus requiring wheel removal as well as the fender liner? Thanks.

What cradle is there? If you can take a pic of it or remove it and get the part# off of it I can tell you what it's for. You can pick up a bluetooth at your dealer it goes in the same slot as that cradle part # 6-7-87-5878

Thanks. Should I just convert it to Bluetooth and use my existing Blackberry? The cradle is B6 787 5844. Says it's for Motorola E815. There's a web address on the back, and I'm going to look there, too.

Porsche guy who drives SL63 w/ perf pkg AND perf suspension
after the screws, the long fins are held w/ double sided tape. Use floss, or nylon fishing line or even wire to cut behind it. All the fins and letters are double side tape.
You can go to the dealer and he can print a list of phones that you can buy that will work w/ your cradle.

Great info and excellent tip. Thanks.
I've already removed those gross air big stickers from the alcantara visors, and will have my Valentine hardwired next week. It's coming along.

Yea you can remove that cradle and use a bluetooth cradle. The part# i posted above is the correct device you need. It should work with your blackberry.
