you may need an adaptor that you can buy in halfrauds to fit it. Needed one for my mk2 leon that they made a hash trying to install. On my mobile so cant see where you're from but if its cork pm me and ill send you on a number that was given to me on here for a very professional installer who did mine

ill send that onto you in the morning. Have the number there. Was given to me by one of the lads here in the trade and was well impressed. Halfords made a complete dogs dinner of it. Damaged trim and half way through the install yer man decided he was going home as he was on hols with wires everywhere...blood boils just thinking about it...

They are on the site. Also used to be good guides from installers on expansys.co.uk site.

The parrot can be installed like any nokia unit. It ain't that bad. I would still get an installer to do it. It will take them about an hour.

It just needs power from the radio unit (check website and google for pin outs on your stereo), microphone position and wire in the mute wire correctly. For sound you have 2 options. Either use the speaker provided or better still get a loom that allows you to use your car speaker for sound. Loom is available again from parrot.

I was also in same situation. Got it for € 41. Tried many places for instalation.....everybody asking between € 90 - 100. Atlast I found someone who chaged me € 50. He came to my place and installed it. He know the work. PM me if you want his number. He works in Dublin area.

What you after is an SOT lead for you model, once you get one you cant go wrong, you really cant put the right socket on to wrong plug.
