2008 MINI Cooper S Cabrio integrated Bluetooth

Hi everyone

Does anyone have any suggestions on how to put integrated Bluetooth into a USA 2008 Cooper S Cabrio? The Newministuff kit worked perfectly, EXCEPT the battery was drained every few days (bit of a problem). We did lots of troubleshooting, and Mikey and I could not find the problem, so I returned the unit.

Could I replace the standard HK HU with a unit with integrated iPOD/Bluetooth HU? Can this be made to work with the buttons on the MFSW? Any recommendations?

I have tried using a BlueAnt visor clipped solution, but don't like it - I normally have the stereo so loud I can't hear incoming calls.

All suggestions welcome.
