Hi,
I have the Nokia mobile phone console which is screwed to the side console and has a speaker. It's not what seems to be referred to as the 'BAT phone'. I would like to get rid of it but I am told that I will have an opening which needs to be covered. Apparently there is an OEM part I can get to cover it. By any chance does someone know the part number?? Has anyone else done this -how difficult is the removal and do I have to do anything with the wiring?
This is the best image I could find:

I have this phone thing in my car too. I think it's a euro spec. thing, havn't seen it on the US cars. Mine has an Ericsson cradle with a mic wired to the a-pillar (and another mic on the SW column?). I am going to put a Tom-Tom iPhone cradle there instead and wire it to my Becker Traffic Pro. That way I can get music from my iPhone and a good SatNAV (TomTom software) and the cradle will hold and charge the iPhone. Pretty neat. Now I just need to get rid of the ugly roof antenna in the rear. Any ideas?

Alex - Since this was a euro option, maybe there are forums in Germany with people that have the same problem (and solution to it)?

I was thinking that there might be some kind of rubber plug that you can buy to cover the hole after the antenna has been removed. But since this was never a US option, I'm not sure bumperplugs.com would have such a plug. (no affil). Otherwise one would have to repaint the whole roof, which is not desirable.

Yes, Rennlist rocks don't get me wrong. I'm sure these guys can come up with a solution. I know many guys on the 928/944 board converted to sharkfin antennas. I'm ditching my antenna. I like the clean look without. So probably a rubber plug for me if I can find one that fits.. Reception is not an issue anyways so no point in keeping the antenna IMHO..
