I did some further research and it appears the Parrots are designed for European cars. They sell harnesses to adapt the units to U.S. cars, but it still does not resolve compatibility issues that resolve on some vehicles.
Surprise surprise, the tech from Circuit City never called me back (shouldn't have expected him to follow through). I've also read on message boards that people seem to have alot of problems installing these Parrot units, and have to do some creative rigging to get them to work. I don't my system spliced and diced too much.
I'm looking at the Motorola units, desigend for U.S. cars. I'm going to the dealership first and talk to the parts departments, see if they have any recommendations. Looks like this little project will take a little while longer.
