Becker Traffic Pro - Aux input? Handsfree?

[Girlie Swot]

My new car (2003 75 CDT) has a Becker Traffic Pro fitted.

I've researched this on t'internet and it sounds like I should be pleased (seemed to be installed in various high-end cars like Mercedes and Maserati). The sound quality is good and it has a satellite navigation capability.

Two questions:

Does any body know if it is possible to adapt it to take an Aux input - i.e. ipod input?

Does anyone know if there is a bluetooth handsfree unit capable of working with the Becker?

I'm not knowledgable on these things so sorry if the answer is obvious to you experts out there ...

Becker no longer make products for the retail market, OEM only, so accessories are hard to come by. There is no Becker Bluetooth but you can integrate a BURY or Parrot system into this as you can with most systems. There is an auxiliary socket on the back which you can use to connect your iPod via it's headphone socket, but it won't charge it or display track/ artist.

That's good to know. Thanks! I'll find someone to fit a Parrot ... if you see what I mean ...
