Default Adding Jaguar Voice and Bluetooth Telephone

Hello.

Please enjoy photos of Jag Voice and newer-style Bluetooth telephone.

First steps: locate existing connections in car and remove factory wraps (electrical and fiber tape(s).

Thanks
Mag

Physically install the Voice and Bluetooth modules.

'Edit' an existing optical cable - I 'made' a female and 2 male connectors to mate with the existing 'terminated' spare connection in the car.

This way it is easily reversible.

Added microphone to the center roof console.

Removed OEM microphone from its case and 'hid' it behind one of the circular vents in the console.

Needed to trim a bit of insulation from the opening to ease the upper console back in.

Also, fished the Bluetooth antenna behind the am and up and into the rear parcel shelf.

Thank you-
Mag
