Description Crutchfield Hands-on Research Accessories
 

We carry cell phone kit harnesses that allow plug-in connection of Parrot's Bluetooth car kits in a wide variety of vehicles.

Want hands-free phone operation and control of your phone's important features when behind the wheel? Parrot's CK3000 Evolution Bluetooth cell phone car kit connects to almost any car stereo system so you can take calls from your Bluetooth phone through your car's speakers.

The Evolution's control panel installs beneath the dashboard, so all you see is the small dash-mounted keypad and microphone. Once your car's engine starts, the Evolution connects automatically to your Bluetooth phone. With the external microphone mounted, just say a name and the Evolution takes care of the dialing. The CK3000 can work with up to three Bluetooth phones at one time.

You control your phone's menu functions with the dash-mounted 3-button keypad. From dialing to phonebook to voicemail, the keypad and voice prompts will guide you easily through phone functions as you keep your eyes on the road. You can change the volume with the press of a button.

The voice recognition software remembers up to 150 names from your phone's address book for dialing (only works with certain phones). Noise reduction on the external microphone lets you carry on a conversation in a normal tone — no need to shout, even in heavy traffic. Most importantly, the Evolution is programmed to mute your car's radio at the onset of an incoming call, ensuring clear sound over your car's speakers.

The Parrot CK3000 Evolution is compatible with all Bluetooth cell phones on the market and installs with most factory and aftermarket car stereo systems. Some factory systems may require an additional wiring adapter.

Note: Compatibility of this device may vary, depending on your phone and service provider.

Reviewer: Gjr from Pacific Northwest  
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.


 
Messy..... January 31, 2010
Reviewer: kensley from Florida  
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.


 
Works Great December 10, 2009
Reviewer: Anonymous person from MIssouri  
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.


 
Great Product!! July 2, 2009
Reviewer: Ivan from Ponce, Puerto Rico  
Works as advertised. Get the vehicle specific wire harness. It works better that
my wife's 2009 Honda Pilot factory system. Crystal clear sound. It makes a small sound once you turn on the car to let you know is paired with your phone. It lowers the radio volume when a call is coming and resumes to play the radio once you hang up. Simple and 100% compatible with my Iphone 3G.


 
East installation, works great March 7, 2009
Reviewer: John from Las Vegas, NV  
Before starting the installation I was a little nervous about tearing into my brand new Camry's dashboard. But I followed the step-by-step instructions provided by Crutchfield and everything went very smoothly.

I also purchased the ISO wiring harness for my vehicle which provided a simple plug-in connection. The only negative comment I have is that the wiring instructions were a little vague. There was a wire marked mute that could be connected to two different places. I could not find any details about which to use, so I just guessed and luckily it worked.

Other than the mute wire question, installation was a snap. Everything works great. Pairing the CK3000 with two cell phones was easy. I did not transfer any contacts since the phones both support voice dialing natively. The sound quality of the calls is great, and callers on the other side of the call don't even realize I'm on a speakerphone.

Overall, this is a great product. I like it so much that I'm going to purchase another for our second vehicle.
