Does anybody know of a place in Victoria that will fit the bluetooth device to the vehicle for less than $800? Given the device is listed as a $350 factory-fit option and all of the infrastructure is there (with the exception of the device itself) I find it extremely difficult to believe it should cost me $800 to simply install the device...
Any assistance would be thoroughly appreciated.
Hi barnesb
I bought a dealer fit Bluetooth for 500, and wished I hadn't. It wasn't an OEM item, and did not offer Bluetooth stereo music streaming from my iPhone. I got my money back and bought a VW OEM item from eBay Spanish guy for 200 and fitted it myself. It's a two hour job max.
You need the item...the module is fairly large, and you need the correct wiring harness. Just ask mr Spaniard. He's sold many an item to Aus people.
