Bluetooth MCS '06

So, I completely misunderstood my dealer when he told me about the Bluetooth capability of my Mini. I recently upgraded my cell to a BT, and was surprised I couldn't get it to work - DUH on my part.

The dealer said the "kit" Mini is going to sell is almost $800. YIKES

So, my question is...has anyone bought an after market kit and installed it themselves? If so, from where, etc.

Thanks!
Lynn

I only invested around $300.00 for the whole setup, by far less than Mini!
