Just fitted this

I've just fitted this motorola 2700 in the glove compartment. I had to drill a small hole in the side to fit the flexible cable. Not sure if the phone looks over the top, what do you think?

you could do to clean your glove box out a bit

my opinion on phone - well at least glove box shuts  

ha ha, retro love it, have you got the giant control box filling up the passenger footwell too?  :mrgreen:

8O  you yuppy!! does it actually work? how does the car cope with the extra weight of the generator youve got in the boot to power it?  :wink:

I've just Celebrated finishing the good work with biscuits and a cup of tea, well thats my excuse and I'm sticking to it :wink:

I fitted the control box under the consul, it just about fits and I can change the sim card by removing the gear stick plastic surround thingy. The ariel comes from a special tax disc holder.

It actually works and is currently on Vodaphone or O2

 :mrgreen:

ha,ha,ha,ha.....

well funky!

Cheers,
…And you don't need to charge the battery! and the reception is a lot better than todays phones. The model I fitted is very rare digital 2700 model and is saught after by sea fisherman because of the reception and call quality. I decided to fit it because I'm always breaking down and leaving my phone at home.

Nice (retro) one!!
I remember my old car phone - you're right, reception/quality much better than todays mobiles

Do they do a hand free kit for it !!!!  8O

Yes, you can use the phone like hands free, the wires are connected to the speakers and there is a microphone installed on the drivers visor. I have programmed the phone so the radio goes to mute on an incoming call, however you have to push the button on the phone to make or receive calls.

Believe it or not, I also have a special transportable motorola kit and case, so I can remove the main model (black box) from the car and insert it into the transportable and it becomes portable. I think James Bond had something like this. Its all great stuff!

Yes, I have the original vodaphone sim card, but I can also use my other PAYG 02 sim. You have to however use the full card that the sim original.
