A “Premium” installation of a CARK-91 Nokia Hands Free car phone kit into a Vauxhall Astra Cabrio with a VDO CDR500 head unit.

The Nokia handset cradle is mounted on a Dashmount console bracket.

As this car is a convertible we fitted a Tax Disc antenna.

The customer had paid extra for the part pre-wired Vauxhall phone interface loom which enabled us to use an Autoleads 06-102RB interface lead and relay. This allows volume adjustment during a call via either the remote steering wheel volume controls or via the stereo. On cars that do not have the part pre-wired loom fitted as standard we can also integrate with the stereo system using either an 06-053B or a 06-094B Autoleads Cellular Telemute interface lead. An Adaptor may be required with some car kits.

The microphone was mounted centrally up by the interior light and the cable was routed away neatly beneath the headlining
