Motorola E815 cradle

My E815 Motorola is MIA, so I had to purchase a new RAZR phone and new top part of the cradle assembly where the phone snaps into place to fit the RAZR for a 06 E90. So, I have the top part of the cradle assembly for the E815 if anyone needs it.

I saw your post and am amazed that noone has replied to you.

It is really nice to offer something to people. It's really rare that this happens.

So, I just thought I'd thank you.

(I have the E815 and love it. It works great in the car. But, I don't intend to buy the cradle since it takes up so much room. The E815 works so well, that I hesitate to update to a new phone. But, the Razr we have also works perfectly. I am playing with getting the Krzr (KRAZER). As long as it's the same software as in the E815 and Razr, that will be great.

And, thanks again for being a good guy.

No problem. I just thought I would save someone about $140.00 and I could not just throw it away. I loved the E815. The RAZR is OK but I have noticed about one less bar of reception than the E815.

I've noticed the same thing. I have BOTH the E815 and the new Razr and when they are on in the same place, the E815 gets at least one bar MORE than the Razr. Maybe that little stub sticking up really DOES help.

Also, the battery life is MUCH BETTER on the E815. Overall, it is a better phone, but the Razr is much more comfortable in your pants. In fact, I forget I have it in there. The 815 is a little to bulky for me.

Have a great week.

Having my 330i software upgrade tomorrow. Keep your fingers crossed I don't lose everything and my phone pairing.

Yes, thanks for the kind offer.

Here's a question: is just the top part useful alone, or do you need the bottom part as well? I have an e815 with no cradle. Thanks...

The top part is just the part to hold the phone. It has the connector to the phone and the car. The total unit is three parts. The latter two are installed into the car. Not a bad idea considering each phone seems to require a different top interface. So fortunately for me I only had to purchase the top part.

The top part sales for around $140.00. I believe the total unit is around $300.00 plus installation.
