Noobie Question- What Bluetooth Unit is this?

Just took possession of a 2005 MCc (5K miles on it!) and unfortunately, it didn't come with any of the manuals. I cannot find any identifying marks on this Bluetooth Head unit. Anyone recognize it?

MINI lower end bluetooth kit. It was around a $450 accessory and you have to use the buttons on it to control the phone. The price did not include the cost of installation. There was a higher end kit that costs $1200, used the steering wheel buttons, and had a charging cradle for several phones in the armrest.

If you ever decide that you don't like the one you have let me know.

That is an entirely different story. My '06 has the instructions for it in the manual. I have one that I found on ebay but was not able to locate the brackets. I should check with Classic and see if MINI has dropped the price to get rid of the units in stock.

Thanks again. I was able to locate what passes for a manual at http://www.bimmernav.com/mini.html. Seems most of the doc is for the navigation version and the non-nav was an afterthought.
