I have the Comand system and it comes with the keypad, do they all? What is the best way to use my mobile? Is there a bluetooth accessory so I can use the address book in comand? If I had to I would get a new phone just for the car.
Thanks Softtop

There is a Bluetooth adapter to use with COMAND, but it uses Bluetooth SAP and therefore only works with certain phones. Your local dealer will be able to give you a list, your contacts will need to be on the SIM too, rather than the phone memory.

Bluetooth adapter is over 300 pounds, but an old fashioned phone adapter is around 350.

Although you have the COMAND you need to make sure you have the phone pre wiring (all the COMAND units have a telephone button on) Make sure you have the phone plug socket in the center armrest console.

Thanks for that. This maybe a daft question, but how do you know if the wiring is there? I have no sockets on show but the base of the compartment should remove but I could not work it out and did not want to break it.
