Title: Which TomTom Live in Aus able to pair with Giulietta Blue&Me ?
Post by: Lseven on December 15, 2012, 09:55:42 PM
Hi Guys,

Has anyone came across which TomTom Live is able to pair with Giulietta's Blue&Me and mount on the dashboard ?

All the info I can get from google are all from UK, not really sure if it works in Aus.

Thanks   :D

I bought a Giulietta in August and purchased the Tom Tom2 and holder that fits the car from Grand Motors Parramatta. Works very well with the GPS and phone contact list. I'm told from Tom Tom that the unit is made for Alfa.
Regards
Peter :)

Hi
I thought I'd share an alternative solution for others like me who upgraded to a Giulietta but already had a perfectly good TomTom.

The port on the top of the dashboard is simply a power port - it's not a device interface (the TomTom Blue&Me model connects via Bluetooth, not via the port), so I purchased an adaptor to mount my existing TomTom Go. So it doesnt pair with Blue&Me, but at least  it is neatly mounted on the top of the dash without the cumbersome suction cup and cable. It pairs with my work phone, while the Blue&Me pairs with my personal phone, so I can be hands-free on either one.
The cradle kit is Alfa #71805795 (I think there may be other adaptors for different TomTom models). I couldn't find it for sale in Australia, but its available from a number of UK Alfa parts websites - I got mine from Mangoletsi.
Cheers, Rog
