Best Bluetooth Upgrade for 2005 GT

A couple years ago I tried the CigBlue install but the call quality is awful. Anyone else recommend a good aftermarket bluetooth kit for a 2005 Continental GT that you've gotten good microphone pickup on?

I bought a Nokia phone with TMobile service and placed it in the armrest cradle.

Any RSAP phone works (old Nokia, old Windows CE-based phones...) but those are soooo old. Thanks for your PM and I replied


The 2005 GT has the old, old again, and yet even older Bentley system. They 'upgraded' it for 2006 models. It's still a worthless POS, I had mine removed from the passenger armrest of the 07 GTC and inserted the Bentley pen setup by Tabaldi my ex-wife gave me years ago.


The pen is mightier than the Bentley stock BT hardware LOL

Stelious, great info and might upgrade to that during the next service. Heck, if it really is only a 30 minute install might have to drive to the dealer and get it done. Thanks!

Hi, I'm really considering buying this upgraded module but I want to know how easy it is to install. From what I gather, it's a simple install for a GT.

Would anyone have any tips or a DIY on this upgrade?

W12 can you give some details if you completed this install? Worried tht there is a programming step they are not telling me about? Was it just plug and play?
