European Cars Ipod & Bluetooth Adapters (Mercedes, BMW, Audi, Porsche, Volvo)

Adding Bluetooth or Ipod to an European vehicle is a little different than domestic vehicles. Most European brands have been using a fiber optic connection for a very long time, way before domestics and asian brands.

Fortunately, all of the cars follow the same standards – and one model will actually fit many different brands, with a flick of a dip switch or other configuration change. So that means shopping for an unit is a lot easier than the hundreds of models for non-European cars.

Unfortunately, most of the European brands are fiber optic and use a digital connection. Because of this, better equipment is needed to get the audio into your car – and usually because it is digital, it will carry digital audio along with text, playlists and album information.

The most popular item available – and probably best is the DENSION GW52MO2 , which has built in bluetooth and Ipod with USB control.

Some main things you need to pay attention to is if an unit will record by itself, when it senses motion, how does it record, does it have a screen so you can review footage.

It is also important to note if the storage is internal or it will require an sd card (at an extra expense). You also need to take note of recording times, and how much you drive to pick an unit.

Not all units are created equal, more expensive units will have a better sensor , so it will pick up objects in more detail and may work better at nighttime.

another important thing is if the unit will record in 720p, 1080p or in standard definition.
