Setting up Iphone through steering wheel.

[j20rdan]

Hey folks, im a bit of a n00b at this sort of topic when it comes to ice... however I recently picked up a 55 plate w203 C Class and I am wondering what do i need to get my Iphone 3G linked up to the steering wheel controls.

I have noticed there is a "cradle" ? already in the car but it seems to be for some sort of nokia, is there a way of doing any of this through bluetooth ? like i said i am a total n00b so please be patient with me! here are a few photo's of what im dealing with.

You can unclip the Nokia cradle and buy the iphone cradle. Comand Online Ltd :: Mercedes Phone/Bluetooth :: Cradles & Bluetooth Adapters

I use a Viseoo MB2 cradle in mine for an iPhone4. Works fine and the address book comes up on Command and inst cluster as weel as operations from the steering wheel. You'd better check that the iphone 3 works with this but I think it doeas. Also other makes of phones can be connected with this sysytem incase to fancy a change later on.
