Gents,
2002 D2 with RNS D and Bose. Do I need an Autoleads cable if I go out and buy a standard Parrot kit? |

Chances are the parrot kit will not work with the bose setup at all. You need a kit you can feed into the RNS-D phone input, the parrot expects normal speaker level outputs from the headunit that the bose setup does not have.

So, just following on from this, what options do I have on my FL D2 for phone addition/integration at "reasonable" cost.
RNS-D, NO Bose, NO phone prep. I have a selection of handsets and smartphones available (though no cradles) and normally use a separate SIM (legacy of the antique Nokia 3110 factory install in the PF) that my family etc. know the number of. Favourite handset would probably be Nokia 6310i (I have 2 plus a 6210) as I often use this when travelling as the battery literally lasts for weeks without a charge. ![]()

Bose and Parrot in a D2 does work - I too have this. Installation a bit more complicated with the Bose (or so I was told by the guys who fitted it...), but works very well when done.
