Default Bluetooth hands free kit

Has anyone installed the Moto IHF 100 or HF 850 Blue tooth Hands free kit in their vert. Just wondering if she has no much road noise to work correct?

Its not too bad. I had a parrot before and that was pretty nice, but it was pricey. Found this for $70 on ebay brand new, figured Id give it a shot. Its pretty out of sight and works OK...and was a snap to install!

If you want more details, let me know!

With 14 years in the wireless business with a major carrier, my recomendation is a Bluetooth headset. I have the factory Bluetooth in my Maxima. I use the headset more often.

You know, its funny...I had a bluetooth headset for a few years, and as much as it was nice, I couldnt warm up to it as much as the hardwired. I found Im always worried about making sure it was charged, didnt want to walk around with it on all the time, but if it wasnt on, Id have to dig for it when a call came in, if I was in the car with more then one person we couldnt all talk to the phone caller (nice to let my daughter talk to grandma...)

Hey LSTINVT,
Any motherhood from your successful install? Where did you mount the speaker?...and the mic?... Where did you put the actual unit with the buttons?
Thanks,
Brian

I have a Sony Akono headset paired to a Samsung A900. I don't know how I survived this long without Bluetooth. Voice dialing is extremely handy and much safer than manual dialing.
