Just found a land rover printed card in owners pack that says "Bluetooth Radio Code" than a four digit hand written number - can this mean I have an OEM hands free kit alreday installed?
If so how do i connect to it etc - don't appear to have a radio guide ? |

Looks like the standard LR one, have you tried pairing with it from your phone?

Just sat in with phone and radio on, did a scan abut it paired with something by a company called Parrot - does indeed work though radio speakers, tough annoyingly when I get a call the iPhone asks if you want to use the iphone / the speaker / hands free - so I have to select a source each time which is hardly hands free

You can set the phone to just use the parrott kit, mine gives all those options, but if its automatically paired it will take the parrott kit.
You then have to tell it to use the normal hand set. |

Cool. That explains that then. Ive got a built in parrot in my alpine head unit, and it works really well.

Odd thing is that there is no actual unit visible anywhere, just the standard radio and a tiny mike fixed up behind the mirror. Perhaps its been stuffed behind the dash somewhere!

The Parrott loom and unit fits inline of the radio connections and generally gets shoved up under the dash or behind the radio somewhere - mine is down the side of the centre part of the dash to the left of the fusebox. Steve.
