Default Bluetooth microphone

Can Anybody tell me if a BLUETOOTH MICROPHONE is a standard fitting in the overhead console
with an X Type 2003. Otherwise I presume one has to be fitted to allow for telephone calls - Where does connect to
in that case ?

the loom with the plug is in the loom, remove the over head light unit and feel around for it normally wrapped in foam to stop rattle. mic not normally fitted

Yes I had the unit detached today to confirm that no Microphone was fitted. Will revisit and see if the connector is as you say thereabouts.
Cheers

I had the head unit out and did a thorough search but found no connector for the microphone. So I imagine I will have to put a cable in, if so where will it run from to connect up with mic ?

Good Day Dennis
Very good guide - thank you will be useful when I eventually get around to installing my entire head unit with the navigation & a droid upgrade.
I notice from the diagram that there should be a lead inside overhead console for the mic - there is not one in mine, I have investigated this area quite thoroughly -
no lead, What would be the way round this little headache ?

Red face Illusive Creature found !

Please note all those who so ably assisted me that the Microphone connector in the overhead console has surrendered -
He was found hiding & stuck down with gum in the overhead lining. Now connected to his buddy the microphone.
Just a couple of small details to iron out and the new odroid/Navsat system is going to be installed.
