I installed a parrot 3200 bluetooth today. I got the device and a harness to make it plug and play from safewireless.com. They shipped quick and did an excellent job of answering all of my questions. The device and harness together as a package were $202 shipped and it is completely plug and play. The harness is easy to connect and can only go in one way. There are actually four seperate plugs on parrot's harness and they all go into the aftermarket harness which can only be purchased at safewireless or directly from the company that makes it. Safewireless only charged $20 for it in the package, while the company that makes it charges $56. It only took about 30 minutes to get everything hooked up and working, but it took longer to get the headunit back in and all of the wires hidden. The only way I could fit the headunit back in was to tuck the wires along the side of the glove box. It took me a while to figure out wear to put them. The bluetooth works very well and goes through all of the speakers. When I get a call it cuts the music and it says the name of the person in my voice. You have to record this manually for all of your contacts unless your phone has voice recognition, but it easy and doesn't take long. Call quality was good on both ends and I am sure it will be better when I have better reception on my phone. I was hoping my phone would be able to send pictures to the device but I don't think the iphone supports it since I can't even send picture messages to other peoples phones. Hopefully steve jobs will give an update for the iphone that allow this. I mounted the device on the empty space on the headunit and let the head unit rest on the wire. I know this is not ideal and it doesn't sit completely flush, but at least I didn't have to drill any holes. I could not fit the device next to the airbag light because of my sirius set up. Everything is snug and no rattles resulted from this setup. My steering wheel controls still work as well. Here are the pics
