Nokia Car Kits

Anyone have any advice regarding Nokia full car kits?

I have a 7250 and my wife has a 6100 which are compatible for the same car kit.

Most places charge around £200 for the full integrated solution which I want. ANyone know anywhere cheaper around Leeds area?

Thanks

Ford Mondeo. How easy is it? What's involved? Do you need a good knowledge of electronics?

Sorry for the late reply and " bump "
As it happens it was mondeo's that I fitted the kits to as well, the way I did it was

1) take out the glove box as this is where I put the box of tricks
2) route the microphone cable down the door frame peeling back the rubber and inserting the cable, ( attach microphone using the sticky back velcro supplied ) now at the bottom of the door frame where it meets the dash you will see three retaining screws, take these out and push wire under the dash.
3) take off the centre consul panels both sides, one screw each side, if memory serves, you can now thread cable from microphone into glove box void.
4) depending on where you want the speaker and phone holder \ charger ( I fit mine by the gear stick, one at each side ) route these cables into void as well.
5) depending on model type there will either be a gromet leading to the bonnet compartment up under the glove box void ( as mine where ) or some other place, get yourself a couple of meters of 1mm twin and earth cable to use as the feed to the box from the battery. ( I use this as it is better insulated than the supplied cable ) it is a bit tricky getting the cable through thr gromet but that is all the is to it.
6) once all cables are in its just a matter of connecting things up, make sure you have the radio code before disconecting the battery
7) that should be it, any problems pm me and I will try and help, ( thats if you have not been put off doing it yourself ) either way let us know how you get on
Sorry for the long post
