    Default A Parrot!

    Thinking i'm going to buy a Parrot folks (the bluetooth kind). Probably the MKi9200 but i'm still considering.
    The question is has anyone got any advice on the best place to get it fitted AND the best place to fit it? ;-)

    Ooh yes, pics would be good! I was thinking Halfords or Carphone Warehouse apparently do them but im always a bit wary of them!

    Anyone else got one of these mounted anywhere different?

    Had mine from the carphone warehouse and they did a 1st class job. Never had any problems with it. The mic is situated above the mirror and the controls are by the alarm button to the right of the stereo. All the wires were hidden away perfectly and the main control box is in behind the glove box.

    I popped onto the Parrot website and they have approved installers. Having checked with a few they're mobile, they warranty everything for 2 years, etc and seem reasonable on price so i might go with them.
    Only question now is where to mount the screen! Need inspiration folks, i don't really want to be faffing and re-doing it!
