Hooked my original BMW carphone up to the steering wheel buttons. I now have a fully working radio and OEM carphone from the steering wheel buttons.

All left to do is cruise control, which I have to retrofit completely.

post pics of phone. is it the old BMW Motorola StarTac

No, Motorola "D-Netz" GSM. Still fully functional and is my hands-free phone when I'm in my car. Using a mobile phone while driving is illegal over here. So what nicer way than fully OEM setup.





I realize I don't have any daylight pics of it. Need to take some. It's the last style curly-cord brick phone (which I like so much), with the higher res display that does away with the little control lights above the screen.

Here's some generic pics.

Oldest module, I think this one is US specific with the text control light on top instead of just symbols. Model: CMT3000VR



Euro(?) 1st gen with all the symbol control lights on top. This one does match the BMW dot-matrix exactly.


And then there's the last model, which I have. Love it. Only shame is that for some reason they did away with the negative display, which all other BMW dot-matrix screens are.

*see my pics*

Also note the different key layout/functions.

As they operate on GSM900mhz, they won't work in the US, but do in Europe. As you can see on my pic, I have 5 (full) bars of signal strength.
