    Hi there - scanned many ofthe psots but didn't really find anything suitable.

    What's the best car kit to get for an iphone 3GS? I'm looking for one that preferabbly covers both hands free usage AND allows me to link into my car stereo. I have USB line-in on my car stereo if that's any benefit...

    I googled about and saw some moderately interesting ones, but wonder if thers who have investigated have come up with some gems, or at least what features to look for.

    Thanks for any recommendations.

    I have a parrot mki9200 kit, it has a screen so you plug your phone in the glove box and you do everything through the screen with a click wheel.

    Available through Jdm products and o2 stores approx €250

    +1 for the Parrot MKi9200
    Very good kit - expensive, but worth it if you do a fair bit of travelling.

    nokia ck-300 here.

    the recent update to ios 4 lets me play music through the bluetooth kit - which didnt work previous.
    I also have the tomtom cradle as if i use the iphone in the car i sometimes will use the gps which tends to munch on battery life.i need to check the fit for the iphone 4 on the tomtom actually.
