Vrstu fits all this type of stuff, and comes highly recommended, once your post count is up to 10, give him a PM and he will sort you out.  :smiley:

will this invalidate my VW warranty?

that is my only concern - and what type of products / prices are available? im guessing it will work through my stereo, will my multi function steering wheel control the phone as well?

MFSW will conbtrol certain aspects of the phone.

Stu is your man but due to the exchange rate for the Euro the cost may be a little prohibitive.

It is an OEM VAG one which is available in Europe but not in the UK.
I'm sure he will be along at some point and add his thoughts. :smiley:

is it better to go for that than say a parrot bluetooth system of some sort?

would i need to get VW to fit it to retain the warranty or does it not matter?

would rather give some cash to someone on here than to VW

It's 10x better than the Parrot.
It doesn't change warranty... they are VAG parts.

Have a poke around here.

Gives you an idea of what is available and price. I'd OE Bluetooth over something bolted to the dash any day of the week.
