Bluetooth and Sat Nav

davred · May 3rd, 2018, 14:47

We've got a 58 plate VC60 Lux which is great BUT does not have bluetooth or a sat nav. Of course you can plug the phone into the USB input but it's not as good as full bluetooth connectivity.

I've seen some very pleasant retro-fit units that come mounted on the 'blank' where a screen would go (Seicane for example) but they will only fit LH drive models (I've checked and they don't do RH). It's shame that the panel is different for RH and LH but that's life!

SO

Any suggestions? Do I go for a Parrot for the bluetooth and mount and off-the-shelf Sat Nav in the blank space?

Thanks
David

I use something like this in my V50.
https://www.amazon.co.uk/JUSTOP-Blue.../dp/B00NEKAJCC

Plug into the USB Socket, and then the 3.5mm into the AUX socket.
Reconnects on ignition (power on) - works really well.

As I have Phone Bluetooth (olny) in the V50, I only connect the Media to this, but I believe both Phone and Media can be connected - but you'll need to switch to AUX when a call comes through!
