I would like to install the phone option in a 2006 B200. It appears not to have a cradle either.Thanks

The cheapest pathway is to install the 2009 Version of the Radio or Navigation. This comes with the Bluetooth function.

Radio
--------
- CD changer built in *
- Works with Media Interface
- Works with Digital Radio
- Bluetooth

Navigation
-----------
- All of the above
- Plays DVD movie
- Flash Card Reader
- Voice control
- Navigation

* In some models the CD changer is absent.

I have one of these Radios if you have a need for it. The navigation units are easily sourced.

To expand on Benzmodz's advice

You can install the MY2009 'Audio-20' which has bluetooth built in - you will need this kit in addition to the new Audio-20 (microphones, adapters, bluetooth antenna etc)

Comand Online Ltd :: Mercedes SatNav/COMAND :: COMAND Retrofit parts :: Current W169 A, W245 B, Sprinter, Vito, Viano :: A/B/CLC/ML/GL/R COMAND NTG2.5 (Hard Disk) retrofit kit - cars without phone.

Or you can install the OEM system, which is a bit of a job but perfectly possible, and needs

Comand Online Ltd :: Mercedes Phone/Bluetooth :: Phone System Retrofit Kits :: Phone retrofit kit for MOST based cars
Comand Online Ltd :: Mercedes Phone/Bluetooth :: Phone System Retrofit Kits :: W169/W245 (A/B class) Phone retrofit - centre console parts
AND a bluetooth adapter (£189 -> £250)

In reality, if you can get a used MY2009 Audio-20, the former is the cheaper and the easier as Benzmodz says !! It may even be cheaper purchasing a new Audio-20 !!!
