Understood. Last question: Do you have a part number for the AMI bluetooth module? Subject to price, I will order this, too.

Thanks again.

Well my A7 has a hard drive as well as an AMI and bluetooth and you can copy from the SD cards or the CD across to the hard drive and then leave it on there, but I do think the copying takes a bit of an age. . .

You could do 2 AMIs

Though Darren, I assume you're looking for the ability to have the phone work as a phone through it and not A2DP. Did your car not come with the Dension, pretty sure it's got a USB socket on it to pop a hard drive on.

Yes Richard i want the phone to work as a phone and would like a seperate hard drive(via ami).Usb socket would be just fine as i could use usb stick or hard drive. Just wondered if there was one unit that would do both.
No the dension was taken out prior to me buying the car.

Ooh.. .cheeky bugger..

Dension could do both from one unit, but apparently the BT isn't that good.

You'd need either a dension or an AMI and BT kit to get that all working. Dension would be cheaper, but not 'as good'.

Could you then reserve something for me in Milton Keynes TPS for me if I ever need it?

Yes of course I have an account.

AMI wise, yes you can get a USB cable for a hard drive for instance. Then you can use the Nokia through the bluetooth.

Feel free to take a run up my way Darren and I can demo if for you if you wanted?
