Aftermarket bluetooth car kit for G?

As California enacted the law restraining people from using thier cellphones while driving, i am looking to buy a bluetooth car kit.

Has anybody here uses aftermarket car kit? Please provide your reviews.

can a oem car kit be fitted on a non - car kit G.

I am sure there must be good car-kits around which are more comfortable to use than a bluetooth headset.

i would prefer sound from my car skeakers instead of car kit device as that would be just like using my cell phone speaker.

It's never too early to start, but that law doesn't take affect until July 2008. Check the DMV website for that info. Better yet, here you go. http://www.dmv.ca.gov/about/leg/leginfo_dl.htm

The Parrot kits are great I have one in each of my cars. They are easy to set up and use, and the sound quality is great.
--The one for the Eclipse radio is also made by parrot.

I'm happy with the Motorola IHF1000 that I have in my 2005 G35 Sedan. It uses the Bose speaker system, mutes it when a call is active, and has excellent incoming/outgoing audio.

I have a TomTom Go 910 GPS. It also has handsfree bluetooth feature. It has an external mic that can be put near you. Assuming that you have linein in your stereo, you can use the lineout jack on the unit to use your car stereo as your speakerphone.

For roughly the price of the parrot unit, you can opt for a TomTom Go 510($290) which has the same features as the 910 minus the 20gig HD.
