I got one of these for €35 on e-Bay. Can't recommend it enough. Very clear sound both ways. No auto answer or anything like that but good out

Hey Henry!

I bought the Seecode Vossor on here for €75.61 delivered and I've had it nearly two weeks now. Not alone have I not had to charge it since I got it (and I'm in the car a fair bit) its neat and compact and I think it looks the business in the car. Its easy to install just if you do go for it be sure to charge it for the recommended for the full 8 hours prior to first time use.

If memory serves Vodafone Blanch were looking for €120.00 or so for the Seecode Vossor and Micks Garage have it online for €139.00.

I can't recommend it enough.

Good luck.

Can you see the dashboard though? Seems to be an issue.

Was that for me Henry Ford III??

the vossor seems to be the one you fit to your rear view mirror...does it fit properly on the mirror and does it impact your view of rear of car??

what is the sound quality (both ways like??)

You are right Henry the Vosser is the rear view mirror one.

It fits like a glove over your existing mirror. If you want to fix it even more securely, you can strap (included) the mirror on (see here the Vossor illustration on their own website). TBH I've had no use for the straps as the mirror fit is more than adequate.

Your rear view is better IMHO and at night there isn't the same intense glare you get from headlights on your normal mirror.

The sound quality is second to none, I've had calls from mobile, landline and other handsfree units to mine and vice versa and have had no trouble whatsoever.

I'm a stickler for quality gadgets at the right price henry and no bs - this is my favourite purchase of 2010 to date!:D

Ive seen these in the phone shop & to me they look like very tacky items. Wouldnt use them. Only thing worse is the bluetooth ear piece some people wear

herny

They are a wee bit "star trek" ok, but are still way preferable to holding a phone to the ear whilst driving.

If you are after a simple bluetooth device, with good reviews, and with good value this might be the trick.

herny

thanks for all the suggestions folks...will keep you psoted on how it goes

My Pixmania experience. Ordered item and paid online. It never arrived. Investigation opened. DHL accepted responsibility.

Dozens of calls/emails and almost 4 months later I got a refund.

I have absolutely no problem with mine and people on other side say the same. It does have to be clipped to the visor for best reception

great thanks...
