Aftermarket phone hook up

[genofar]

Bought a 1999 C230 Kompressor- previous owner had a Nokia "hands free" phone cradle installed next to the stereo. Wiring is completed to the fuse block under the hood and he had a red and a blue wire stuffed into two unused fuse spaces. The ground is already hooked up. Does anyone know of a "dummy fuse that these wires can be attached to and then plugged into the fuse block? If no can I shave down a flat bladed connector and just push it into the fuse block since these wires already have in-line fuses in them. If I can do the latter option; which side of the fuse is the hot one?

I bought a used E320 with one of those Nokia hands free setups, and want to get an adapter for my Motorola or get rid of the hands free mechanical pieces.

Any idea who makes the unit and if i can swap it for a Motorola Nextel holder?

Spike,
Mine is a Nokia which is from them I guess. My thought would be to contact nextel to see if they have a compatible unit. How is your Nokia wired in-the fuse block under the hood? If so which fuse spaces did they use>

I have a friend that has a 99 e300TD. that he wants to add his V60i cell to the stock radio controls has any one done this?

thanks

You should be able to find clips that go around one of the fuse's "legs" and slide right into the slot together. Here's an example in the right side pictures: http://www.thomasregister.com/olc/71620207/fuse.htm They make them for both the mini and regular sized blade fuses. I don't prescribe them, myself preferring to solder, but they'll work.
