Hi
Have a look here - my list contains older cradles for older phones that MB dont talk about any more - theres a k800i cradle and a w800i - and of course theres the bluetooth option

Theres also a search on my ebay search that looks for all the german versions (etc) which will save you money !!

Thanks for this info Richard.I have never seen a cradle on MB website for a K800i.Was this avaliable elsewhere and not in UK?Can they still be bought new?

I am now thinking I should ditch the 850i and get an upgrade phone to a Nokia.These phones and cradles seem to command better prices when older.Anyone think similar?looking at k700i cradles they seem to go cheap!but nokia ,s always seem in demand.

I would get a bluetooth phone in the list for the HFP cradle on comandonline.co.uk and get a HFP bluetooth cradle.

Since you have a SLK and an W211 E with changable cradles, HFP works in both

AND as you have 191 posts, PM alfie who will arrange a discount

Thanks for this Richard,but one problem,I have heat reflective glass so there is a problem using that system,hence my going down this route.

Which car has the heat reflective glass ? (PM me the chassis number and i'll look it up and check it has the 'wrong' kind of glass if you want)

If you pick a Nokia, then you can use the SAP cradle that uses the external aerial
