I specially ordered the bracket that holds the cradle, I believe the brand was ProFit (or something like that). Unfortunately I don't remember. Hopefully Nokiatech can comment about who makes them. Anyway, go to your local cellular installation bay and ask for the bracket, they can get them, and run about 25 bucks.

I mounted the "brain" for the car kit behind the glove box, hanging out with the DRL kit and the BCM.

Nice but what do you use now for the Nokia phone? I need to get one of those kits its next to impossible to shift and talk on the phone at the same time.

You can also get the Pro-fit for the Nokia car kit mount. I did that recently and for about $120, I got the Nokia car kit mount and Pro-fit adapter.

Also included with the Nokia car kit mount (http://www.nokiausa.com/shop/nokia_accessories/promo/details/show_all/1,5292,phonecode:5160|category:40,00.html) is obviously the microphone and also a speaker that fits perfectly in the center cubby hole. You can optionally get a handset/mount which I mounted by the floor, next to the left of the console. Great for noisy situations or when privacy is required.

Dig around on the internet for the best prices for both the Pro-Fit and for the Nokia hands-free car kit. The mark-up on this stuff is rather intense and you can save a lot of money. I'd do it but am at work and need to return to the "real world" duties.

I'm going to grab a nokia full install kit. I already have the antenna, mic, and speaker installed, so hopefully it's as simple as running a new cradle and brain. I can use the same pro-fit bracket.

They do.. kinda.

I have kind of the same ProFit mouting bracket that Seth has, but all I had to do was drill a hole in the center for the mounting "cup" for my i90c. I ordered the mount from Nextel (yours is part #NTN9476). I didn't use the base from the Nextel mounting piece because it made the unit stick out too much. I'll snap a side picture of my mount to clarify, but here it is installed.

Not sure if the i50sx has speaker phone, but the i90c does and it works pretty good even being mounted over by the radio.
