    Visor clip-on bluetooth units

     Does anyone have any experience of these?

    I have seen one in Halfords for £20, which seems pretty decent.

    Hi Dave

     

    I brought similar some years ago, I was never happy with it and stopped using it within a few weeks, it is sat in the garage somewhere now.

    Hi Ben,

    I have a Jabra one which i use when jumping in and out of hirecars. It works fine in most modern cars, but i havent tried it in the 5. I suspect the extra background noise would render it pointless. Big Smile

     i had one of these and it was pretty lame due to background noise I left it in the car when I sold it!!!,  I went back to a 'lug slug' which  still use if I'm driving for work. In the five I just let the answerphone take the strain or pull over

    I actually used in today properly for the first time. Works great with the top down and in blusterly but sunny conditions as we had here in SE Wales today. Easy to use too. I would recommend this one.
