[s-cars] Hands free + armrest tweek

[Lee Levitt]

I have a Bluetooth enabled phone, but put a hardwired kit in my 
car for two reasons:

- the car is the primary place my phone gets charged
- I have a (perhaps naive) belief that an external antenna extends 
the range of the phone (a VZW Mot 710).

If neither of these was true, I'd probably go bluetooth in the car 
as well...

Comments?
