Well after a dilema of how to get bluetooth into my car I finally settled on a Parrot Asteriod Mini.
I originally had a Pioneer AVX3500DAB fitted and my wife absolutely hated it so I had it taken out. Plus the radio reception was shocking too.
Anyway we had a Parrot MKI9200 in the last car and she liked that as the voice dialling worked great, as well as having full ipod control too.
I went to get one of those fitted today and then spotted the Asteroid Mini before I pulled the trigger. They gave me a demo of it and I was sold on it so I gave the go ahead on that, especially when they said they could do it now.
I really wasn't sure where to have the screen and the control buttons installed as there are very few places on the MK5 dash for things like this to go without it looking terrible. I borrowed the screen and showed them where I wanted it to see if it would work there and it did. It sits quite out of the way and only obscures 0-1000 revs which I'm really not bothered about seeing anyway.
So far the system has performed really well and the speech recognition is fantastic, especially as I can tell it to find a track out of the thousands on my ipod and it will just play it.
What do you guys think?
