Telephone Car Kit with my iPhone

    Hello,

    I currently have a Nokia CK-7w car kit installed in my Opel Antara with a CD 30 radio.

    Basically, I bought an iPhone last week and I'm looking to intergrate it into the kit.

    I'm looking to be able to play music from my iPhone through the car kit as the radio does not have an input for an mp3 player and I'm also looking to find a dock part that will fit my iPhone as the pre-installed nokia one is too small

    is this operation possible?

    cheers,

    Kevin.

    Hi,

    That looks like a good option, but is there any way to adapt my nokia kit ~ if not is there a cheaper alternative?

    cheers,

    Kevin

    Im guessing the apple heads would know more options for the iphone. Maybe ask a mod to move it to the apple forum

    OP - I've moved your thread to this Apple Media Devices forum as it's mainly iPhone based. I've left a permenant redirect from the mobiles forum though.

    Ive the CK7W installed and it pairs no problem with the IPhone via bluetooth. Haven't managed to get voice from satnav to come thru system though so i'm interested in any progress you make

    Something like THIS Dension kit, may work, just double check the car radio type, as the one in the list says CD30 with aux in by the handbrake.
    The Dension kit is top notch, I've heard mixed reports about the parrot kit (mainly very good reports, but some complications with fancy car audio systems), I have always kept the BT hands free kit and my iPod audio device separate, the CK-7w does a great job as a hands free kit, and the Dension has it's own job to do, charge the device and play high quality audio, my Dension works perfectly with the multifunction steering wheel too.

    On a separate note, for anyone with the CK-7w kit, if you have occasional connection issues with the iPhone and the Nokia kit, reset the CK-7w and wipe the previous stored phones from it memory as this is a common issue with the kits, google the procedure if you need it.
