Parrot Eclipse CK3000 Evolution Review

The CK3000 exceeded my expectations. After installation it worked like a dream. The sound quality is good and I can operate the whole thing by voice command and never take my hands off the steering wheel.
Apparently the BT-500 was another part number for the CK3000 because it came with a Toyota wiring harness. I cut it off and attached it to my 2004 Saab 9-3. It wired right into my Electronic Head Unit so it automatically mutes the stereo and routes the sound through the front speakers. I can increase the volume with the controls built into the steering wheel. The control knob and buttons on the Parrot are so small they don't look gaudy on the dash and it blends in nicely.
I definitely would recommend this product.

it's ok

This product pop each time the phone and the bluetooth would pair up. can't use this if you have an amp for your highs and mids because the rca out lines don't work with the bluetooth. had to put converters on the speaker outputs so i could use my amp for highs and mids. people have a problem hearing me. possibly where the microphone was place at.

Works great!

Works great, especially with the new Oregon law for hands free. Can hear great, sound quality is good, only draw back would be no private conversation if others are in the truck but on the flipside all the occupants can talk to the person on the phone at once!

Base model doesnt work with amps.

This is a base model product, it doent work good for a professional system, it doesnt work with amps. (No automatic mute for the sound with incoming calls) spend the extra money and buy a higher end model, the parrot system is good. Other than that it works great as long as you are not hooking up amps to the system.

Texting beeps

When i first installed this I had an LG and when I texted the beeps would come through the speakers, after I switched to a blackberry it didn't do it anymore. Cracked the buttons off numerous times from leaning on them in the cab.

If you use this product in a Non-Toyota

I had a friend of mine purchase this product to use with his Eclipse deck, but he did not have a Toyota and did not want to cut the harness that comes with this unit. After trying to figure out a way around it, we ended up purchasing a generic wiring kit for his car, as well as the Metra 71-1761 wiring kit. In putting these two kits together, we essentially made an adapter to go from his car wiring harness to the factory Toyota harness, which this product plugged right into without a problem. No splicing, no mess. Clean install. And it worked out great.

I wanted to let everyone know about this option, as even the local installer guys wanted to tear apart the harness on the BT-E500 to attach it to a regular wiring kit. I think our solution is a much cleaner and neater solution, which leaves more options for the future...

Great Blue Tooth device

Great device. Great sound quality and ease of use. I like this better than the installed motorola blue tooth devices. It has been installed 6 months now.

Excellent product! No issues! Sonic had the best price online!

Too hard to install

This came free with the purchase of my Eclipse head unit. I attempted the install but the directions were not good and i gave up.

It works

The product mounts well and looks good in the vehicle, a little on the low side for the volume of your caller. Exhaust plays a part in this role. If you have a new vehicle with little to no outside noise the volume would be perfect. This may be an install issue though. It is nice that you can hold a conversation from the outside of the car, the mic works that good.
