options for bluetooth for my aps 50

[petecb]

hi guys , having just purchased a 53 plate e500 :bannana:I am now looking at my options and also for advice on Bluetooth for my phone connectivity. the audio 50(black and white satnav small screen) has the tel buttons and the same on the steering wheel so I would like to be able to use these if the module isn't too expensive . there is no cradle in the armrest compartment like previous e class's I've seen have so I don't even know if there's any wiring in there for me to plug into . Has anyone done said adaption? - is it easy?- and more importantly is it expensive?
I could always go for the parrot option but would prefer to use the existing buttons .
cheers in advance

You need to check if you have phone pre-wire: http://www.mercupgrades.com/Choosing+Bluetooth+Cradle+for+European+Mercedes+Vehicles-article-41.html

If you dont you can fit the mcar interface or fiscon pro which will both provide bluetooth and work with the steering controls and cluster display but will be more expensive than Parrot. Phone System Retrofit Kits | Mercedes Retrofits | Comand Online Ltd
