Suggest 2 options - Option 1 - Orange had a business tariff called single number which meant you could have dual sims but on one visible number so that you could nominate one as the primary number and when that was switched off it automatically rang the second sim instead. Option 2 is to get a tariff on the main mobile that includes free calling to any mobile at any time then if you divert the original mobile all call diversion costs will be free - tmobile do a tariff called full monty at the moment which gives you unlimited texts, data and calls to any mobile or landline for £41 a month which means you can use your iphone as a wifi hot spot as well for no extra costs! |
I'm on giff gaff - cheap and cheerful.
But maybe this would do the job? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/16in1-Phon...item3a5b5bba02 |

I had a look at mine (FL D2, no phone prep) and there are 2 grilles but they are a fair way forwards, in front of the map light switches. :Confused: I'm working out how to properly install a bluetooth phone kit (already wired in and working in "lashup mode") and need somewhere to locate the microphone. I can see a small mark in the headling :tuttut: where a previous owner obviously had a microphone cable coming out from behind the front roof light etc. control panel very close to the driver, but I'd prefer something neater. Can someone advise what the sequence is for removing that panel (with the lights and switches in) to feed a microphone cable to wherever I finally site it? And is an Audi microphone (from A8parts obviously) likely to be compatible and better, so worth doing a bit of "splicing"? The microphone with the bluetooth unit has a simple 2-conductor jack connector so easy to swap. |

I found a plausible answer here: http://forums.quattroworld.com/a8/msgs/71331.phtml
Though it's not clear how the 2 smaller panels come out - presumably prised out somehow, but no clues when you look at them? |

Not sure if it helps you or not HP, but just got my tame photographer to take these, sorry about the greasy marks on the plastic:tuttut:
anyhow when I got mine whoever fitted the old BT thinghy appears to have mounted the Mic as shown with double sided tape, and it works fine, did a pretty good job of concealing the wire too, so much so that I cant tell where its routed (and I never noticed before now that its not quite centred properly/OCD Mode off) http://forum.a8parts.co.uk/attachmen...3&d=1365011507 http://forum.a8parts.co.uk/attachmen...4&d=1365011507 slopes off for the Mr Sheen and a soft cloth:o ETA just popped back out and the cable just comes out through the join at the edge of the panel to the rear of the mic, but must admit never really noticed it before now. Are the grilles Notorious refers to those in front of the light switces either side of the sun roof control? |
Many thanks for that Your Lairdship and Brian, just had mine out and it's exactly the same except no microphone! +++
Odd that the microphone sits on the passenger side though......:Confused: (though looking at the way everything is installed it could probably be swapped to the other side very easily) The other panel with the lights in seems rather firmer and I didn't get it out, though I didn't try too hard just in case. :tuttut: Now I have to figure out how to get a lead up there from the glovebox area. |

Behind A pillar is easiest, lots of curtain airbag to work around though to do it properly. A piller trim wont come off unless you remove the grab handle and use needle nose pliers to pull the hidden tab than holds the trim firmly in place. And watch the alcantara. If you crease it, its never quite the same and it *will* bug you every time you see it... ;) |
