What phone is he using?

Main difference is call quality. Is he using this thing all the time (ie. Realtor)? Or just occassionally for random calls?

Cheaper ones tend to have crappier speakers and are hard to hear + they have bad mics with zero noise cancelling.

fyi, no one really steals car stereos anymore.

Does his car have an aux-in? If so, something like this would work well - iClever Himbox HB01 Bluetooth 4.0 Hands-Free Car Kit for Cars with 3.5 mm Aux Input Jack (Dual USB Car Charger and Magnetic Base Included) - Black: Amazon.ca: Electronics
