I've fitted a Parrott in a BMW and a Nokia C7KW in our GTi. Both are great products.

The TVR head unit has std ISO connectors on the back, so you can link this kit through the speakers/use the stereo's mute facility.

Personally, if I were after Bluetooth in my TVR I'd go for one of the new bluetooth headunits. Saves lots of bits messing up your dash.

I have one in our Audi and its great. However no point putting on in the TVR as no one will hear you.

I've got the Parrot CK3100 in my Honda Accord. Magic piece of kit (the Parrot, that is - the Honda's a turd on wheels)

I also have a Sony Ericsson bluetooth (HCB-30) in the Tamora. Works perfectly. Except when the roof's down cos the mic is mounted at the top right of the windscreen so comes in for rather a lot of wind buffeting. It was fitted when I bought the car so I can blame this short-sightedness on someone else.

Sooo.......
The Parrot is magic.
Watch where you put the mic (oo-er missus).
If you want a top-notch job done I can recommend Sio Communications in Livingston (Central Scotland).

Any questions, feel free to drop me a note via e-mail.

Had it fitted into my T350. Utter waste of money as no one can hear you when your talking, although the microphone was only a few inches from my mouth! The only benefit was it did mute the radio so at least I knew the phone was ringing even though it was pointless answering unless I could pull over.

I've had the Parrot Bluetooth CK3100 fitted in my T350 through the steroe & I think it works an absolute treat. After 3 different bluetooth headsets, none of which I could hear in the T350, the Parrot is clear, easy to hear and apparently easy for people to hear me.

As I only have the boot speakers the only time I've had a problem is at high speed on the motorway, with the boot full and the cover down, as you can only turn the volume of the Parrot up so much. Still thats only been one phonecall I couldn't hear in the couple of months since I've had it put in
