Using the Parrot CK3000 is completely effortless. With my cell phone on and in my pocket, I sit in my car and turn on the ignition. The Parrot gives me a beep to tell me it is connected. If I get an incoming call, It silences the radio, announces the caller's name and rings through the car speakers. It answers the call and gives me another beep to tell me the line is open, and I say "hello". I talk with the caller hearing them through the car stereo speakers. When the caller hangs up, the call is ended and the radio comes back on. For the entire process, all I have to do is talk. Everything else is handled automatically.
Outgoing calls are almost as easy. I wish I could tell you about the details, but reviews are limited to 1500 characters.
I have been buying from Crutchfield for over 15 years and they are the best.

The hardest part of this installation is the removal of the radio and that wasn't hard with the instructions supplied by Crutchfield. The control box is kinda big and in some installations it might be a challenge to hide but it's not fussy and zip ties are your friends. I removed the pillar trim to hide the mike wire and make a sanitary installation; it looks good. After that, it's plug and play if you have the optional wiring harness. I would NOT attempt this install without the harness, it makes it so very easy that it's a no brainer.
Quality of the Bluetooth is good, I may install one in my other car.

I purchased the Evolution to replace the Parrot MINIKIT Slim because I liked the ability to have it mute the radio and play through the speakers. I went ahead and purchased the adapter wiring kit too because I wanted to keep my install clean. I have an after market stereo installed and use the RCA outputs to an amplifier. The adapter kit is meant for a system that is connected using the existing wiring not RCA plugs. I was able to connect it into the wiring between the amplifier and speakers with some success although the sound was not as good as expected. The thing that I could not get past was the amount of wiring and components that needed to be hidden someplace. The adapter is bulky as well as the units wiring harness. I removed the unit and will go with a head unit with built in Bluetooth to avoid the mess.

Great product for the money! Crutchfield Tech Support is the best. Had issue with the first Parrot sent and they sent a new one. New one works perfect, I would get the harness as well from Crutchfield. It makes it much easier to install.
