Well, I took the plunge and ordered one from Poland. £74 with postage.
Next up will be the 54 pin connector from the dealer.
I currently have the Motorola in the armrest. I take it no other parts needed? Bluetooth aerial etc.. already in place somewhere?

Bluetooth aerial should be on the one you have already. and you can get rid of the motorola unit from the console too and get some space back.

Hi everyone

No problemo with translation and forget about PayU or whatever Allegro is using.
They will give you just bank details (Swift code and something else), you transfer the money (bank's fee usually 10quid-Lloyds) and you will have it in few days.

I can ask my supplier as well, just let me know exactly what you want.

When I fu**ed my BT module during the MMI update, I got one from Poland as well for 70quid as I needed exactly same SW number, not the only PN due to lost driver, so I had to match what was there before - very very difficult with so many different SWs.

Just PM me or post here and I will always help as much as I can, or even call them or get my sister to complete the sale and send it to your address if necessary

Cheers MA8, got my bluetooth box from Poland at the weekend and the connector housing from the dealer. Now need to find time to fit it.
Someone hit me up the back today, only minimal bumper damage but will wait till that's sorted by sytnerdrive/dealer as don't want too many things going off at the same time.

Just had a look and slid off the upper seat rail covers, and they are triple-square bolts and I don't have sockets for these and my T50 will slip. I have ordered these in the hope that they will suffice...

All fitted and working.
Had to update it's firmware before it would pair with iPhone 4 - even then it seemed counterintuitive. I hope it works with the 6 when it arrives.
Thanks guys

I've just updated to an iPhone 6 and was looking at pairing by BT to use an ELM327 data device plugged in to the OBD port. It would appear that the iPhone/iPad has restriction on Bluetooth support (Basically iPhone/iPad/iPod requires the BT data device to have a special Apple authentication chip which 99% of the BT adaptors don't have). In order to use standard Bluetooth devices in data mode you therefore may need to jailbreak your iPhone.
