New stereo - Will it affect handsfree?

[skip_1]

No idea if anyone will know but:
Going to fit a new stereo to my Astravan. Currently has the original tape deck (old model van), and has a Nokia handsfree wired in. I can put in the Vauxhall to ISO converter wire easy enough, but will the handsfree wires just slot in somewhere?

Cheers for any advice.

ETA: It's a Nokia CK-7W.

Anyhow - My answer is a bit vague as IIRC it depends how the Nokia kit is installed.

In my experience, they are usually spliced into the speaker wires, with only the phone mute lead going to the stereo, so I'd say go for it - you should be fine.

If of course the new stereo & the car kit stop working, you never saw me & I take no responsibility

HTH (if I did!)

I didn't think that the speaker wires would be spliced. Could just be a straight swap then. I'll give it a go. Thanks for the advice.

Cheers Chris. I just connected the ISO's, put the aerial connector on and shoved it in the dash. Works a treat. I didn't even bother to wire in the telephone mute wire, but the Nokia somehow attenuates the sound anyway
