Can someone please get me some info? (crossposted fro Europe section)

Hi all. I wonder if any members in Canada would be able to find out some info for me.

I just bought a BMW System V helmet, and am really happy with it. Unfortunately, as I live on the arse of the world (Australia), no one has any information about the Bluetooth kit that can be retrofitted into the helmet.

So, would someone please be able to ask a BMW dealer in Canada if the WCS-1 Bluetooth kit has been re-released, and if so, the prices etc?

It's worth noting that the original Bluetooth WCS-1 system was withdrawn from sale, as there were issues with water ingress into the controls etc. The new system has evidently been released in the last month or so. I have also found that every weblink I have read relates to the old system that has been withdrawn.

This is why I am after some first hand experience from a dealer.

I know that it's a long shot to post this, but thought it was worth a go...

TIA

Hi NCB. Thanks for the link. I have edited my post to add some more info. All the current weblinks (yours included

) seem to be talking about the old version of the WCS-1.
