Default bluetooth for s197

i want to get a bluetooth adapter "car kit" for the stang. i am tired of trying to talk on the phone and drive a manual trans at the same time.

has anyone installed either a Parrot or Motorolla kit or something similar in their s197?? how difficult was it?? is there a special harness to make it run through the vehicles audio system??

bassically... Help!!! i dont know jack about bluetooth in the car and really want a high quality kit installed and need to know the best way to do it. and i dont want to have it installed, i can do that, i just need some direction and a parts list.

Thanks
Tony

Well I didnt install is myself but I can show you what a finished Parrot device looks like.
Its the little thing to the left of the nav screen (there might be a newerversion out now.)

Ford makes a bluetooth kit for the mustang (at least they did). It should be in the mustang accessories catalog under electronics.

I'd go with a Parrot!

Wifey has one in her car, works like a dream, MUCH BETTER than the Bluetooth attached to my Avic-Z1

I don't like the ear pieces. Never could get used to them. In my truck I just added a JVC KD-BT1 with built in bluetooth. I love it, but it's only really an option if you're looking to swap in a DIN radio. I'm going to get one for my 93 Cobra.

I'm probably going to get a parrot for my 05 when I get my 05... (tomorrow maybe...)

For now when I'm driving that I don't want to be bothered... Leave a message, I'll get back to you later.

WTF did people do before cell phones? Send carrier pigeons?

lol... i ask the same question every day, and still i am clueless.

i'm really looking for someone who has installed their own. but i do like the parrot system jmanpartsfan has. that exactly what i had my eye on.
