MOTO E815 integration w/BT complete
 

I just completed the full integration of my MOTO E815 in to my 2002 X5. I bought the BT ULF module from AdvancedAutovations.com, and the eject box and snap-in adapter ( snap-in for V710 fits the E815 ) from Crevier. Everything works as advertised. The phonebook transfers, the phone charges, and the X5's built in cell antenna is being utilized as well.

Thanks to Rob for sending me the needed mini coax to fakra adapter so that I could use the cars antenna.

Can you tell a real difference in call quality using the car's antenna, compared with the phone's?

I'll have to get back to you. I just finished the install a little while ago. Signal strength was the same inside the garage :)

That looks great SG! :thumbup:

It was expensive, but worth it :thumbup:

It seems as though the cars antenna gives me one extra bar on average thus far. My area has superior "EVDO" Verizon coverage, so in general I am getting 4-5 bars.

Will I have to do all this with a 2005 X5 in order for the MOTO E815 to work?

Yours is different. I think you have the combo Assist/BT module already, but it doesn't have the Voice Recognition feature built-in, and will require the purchase and installation of a stand-alone VR module if you want this capability. Have you tried to pair the E815 to your system yet? If you need the VR module, PM Dr_Smith, he's getting ready to sell his.

The VR was built-in in my 2005.

Thanks but I missed this. I'll check later maybe he still has it.
