Parrot Asteriod
Has anyone fitted one? Happy with it?

Does it need an SOT cable or does it fit straight in?

Many thanks for any help Very Happy

Thanks SGH - can you remember if it went straight in without any adapters?

No adapters needed.

I mounted mic on interior mirror seems to work well mounted there.

I will try to get some pics of it tomorrow if you want.

Yep I've got one as well
Straight in
One problem I had was it didn't always start up properly at first no sound no bluetooth but after reading instructions it said up date / flash it first Embarassed Embarassed
But a quick down load of up to date soft ware onto a stick and then plug it into the lead on the back and bingo all great
Brought a tmobile stick £30 for 3 months use and it will become a head unit like nothing else you've ever had
You could poss plug it into a phone and use it that way but it means I just leave he stick on the shelf under grab handled
One thing, you can't play CDs but the Bluetooth link is great for streaming music It's good to be back from the dark side
