    I have just got a Parrot "MINIKIT" which clips to the sunvisor.

    About £35.00 if you get it online using Rpoints, and free delivery or collect in store.

    Do NOT get it instore as it is £49.99.

    It is a basic bluetooth kit, but works well.

    Voice activated dialing works fine.

    ive used the parrot that has the caller display and phonebook i think its the ck something or other.
    its wired into the stereo so it mutes the radio and you hear the caller over the car stereo system.
    ive tried lots of methods of handsfree and found this (other than factory fitted bluetooth stereos) to be the best,there is no time delay there is no feedback or echo,it is possibly the best after market handsfree kit available.
    i havent tried the sunvisor parrot,so cant comment on that,but do advise the hard wired one.well worth the money.
    ...work permit granted!
