the mic is actually the little black nub next to the rear-view mirror post. You can literally stuff the wire into the padded ceiling liner very easily, pull it down the a pillar (there is someone on this site who installed a turbo boost gauge who showed how to remove the post) behind the fusebox in the front dash and to the center console area. I used these harnesses (around 50 bucks or so): http://www.quickconnectproducts.com/ Did a google shopping search for the cheapest CK3000 Evo kit (79 bucks at time of posting): http://www.google.com/products?q=CK3000&btnG=Search+Products And these instructions to rip apart the dash: http://techinfo.subaru.com/html/downloadFree.jsp?doc_id=219672 Honestly, if you can hold a screwdriver and are willing to fiddle around for maybe 1-2 hours (at a slow pace), you can do it yourself and save some money. Plus, you will know any damage is caused by you instead of some installer.

Dumdum. I installed it the way Parrot does it. The website shows this picture: http://www.parrot.biz/fr/produits/ck3000evolution/texte_fck/image/photo-017.jpg Which is pretty simple to do: 1- Drill the hole in the shift console plastic piece when installing it 2- Run the controller cable through the back through the hole. you can configure the controller to either have the cable to out the top, bottom, or back; so I went with the back. 3- Connect it to the BT reciever unit, which I jammed under the dash. (it requires you to open the dash up)

Yep...it's a parrot CK3000 kit....in an outback. I wished they had the OB w/ nav in 5 (or in my wildest dreams, 6) speed. But 5EAT is the only choice. It's a clear disadvantage because it seems like everytime I rent a car in europe, I have to "re-acclimate" myself to a stick. here's a clearer view here: http://www.subaruoutback.org/gallery//500/15338img_0376_1.jpg

450-600 should be the range.
