How many MINIs out there using Parrot Products

Ok I bought the Parrot CK3100 interface,the Quick connect plug and play for the Factory HK harness back of Radio,and the Multican connector to use the MFSW. I Want to know who is running this set and if its worth it to have it installed to try to tackle it myself. Is it hard to program the interfaces to work hand in hand with my Bluetooth phone.

Serious inputs only. I opened the boxes and I cant belive all the wiring.

I'm running the CK3200 (color screen) without the multican on an '06 MCS with h/k and Nav. Installed it myself and it's working great! The hardest part of the whole install was getting everything to neatly fit behind the radio as it was slid back into place. I put the blue box and all other wiring under the driver's side dash in the drop-down door.

I have a CK3000 Evo in my 06 MINI. If you have questions regarding this kit, you should talk to Mikey at newministuff as he actually sells these kits with a harness that is plug and play. Installation on my kit was a snap. I ran the mike up the A pillar and and put the blue box under the steering column.

My kit doesnt use the multican - mine is bespoke for the Mini & is plug & play & requires no programming (& has a lot less wires)

poly want cracker

Gadget. The Multican is a 3100 series and its plug and play right to the
parrot interface. I was told to buy this hand in hand.

Are you using the unit through your MFSW. This is why I was told to buy the
Mutlican from the parrot people. I'll try to tackle next weekend.

I was going to buy through mike. But it cost too much. I got alot of parts
@ my shop price. So it was cheaper to stay in the States. Actually even
Local here in southern Calf. So that was nice.

that quick connect harness is pretty cool.

Do you metioned something has to be programmed.



Guido out!

poly wants cracker continued!

Ok Gad and Da update. I acutally built the whole asembly on my office floor @ home. Everything plugs in perfect. But
1. Can High and Low do I use it for a 2006 S or use the K bus wiring.
2. 12 pin connector that goes into the blue box main interface. the are
little 0.5mm wires coming out green wire says line+/brown wire line - I can't find in the wiring diagram with the kit where are these going.
3. There is red lead wire 1mm from my HK plug and play harness and its
bundle up. Is that my main Batt+.

Let me know guys
