"Back in '08 when we had to cease doing this because of our economic issues, the sheriff was really upset about having to stop doing it. He enjoyed it. He knew you guys were getting educated on what was going on so he was really upset about it," BCSO Capt. Mike Shinall said during his address to the class.
Shinall, who served as the program coordinator, said the academy will return again in April, and the department hopes to host the course on a quarterly basis.
Beginning Oct. 11, the 27 participants attended 10 sessions on Thursday evenings at the BCSO.
Those attending the class covered all ages with several younger members saying they were interested in pursuing a career in law enforcement.
Aileen Marshall, who is working toward becoming a registered nurse, said Wednesday the academy was an avenue for her to learn if she truly wanted to be a nurse or if her calling was in law enforcement.
She said after discussions with instructors, her plans for now are to remain in the RN program.
The 2012 session of the citizens' academy began with an introduction to the office of sheriff by Bartow County Sheriff Clark Millsap and a tour of the new addition to the jail.
Over the following nine weeks, students were introduced to all levels of local law enforcement from the courts to the deputies on the streets.
Throughout the session, members heard from the Bartow-Cartersville Drug Task Force, including a hands-on lesson with seized narcotics and, later, a demonstration by the K9 unit assigned to the task force.
Investigator Jonathan White led the class through a look at crime scene investigation, which concluded with a practical exercise by attendees. White established separate crime scenes around the sheriff's office, and based on the investigator's instructions, the class "worked" the scenes in small groups.
He then had each group present its findings and determinations to the class.
Toward the end of the academy, Shinall, along with Sgt. Richey Harrell and Investigator Phil Frasier, offered a course in cardiopulmonary resuscitation, which certified participants in CPR. During the session, students also learned methods to aid choking victims and use of the automated external defibrillator.
For an overwhelming majority of the class, the highlight of the 10 weeks came in early December when attendees underwent firearms training at the range in Emerson.
Instructors worked with the citizens using both handguns and an M16 rifle. Prior to the live firearms training, Shinall led a session on weapons carry laws, use of force and personal safety.
Upon graduation, students who had completed the prerequisites, including an online security and integrity course through the state. Graduates will be allowed, beginning in January, to spend three days with employees of the sheriff's office — choices include ridealongs with patrol deputies or working with jail deputies, courthouse staff or the criminal investigations division.
For Danney Pickard, safety and human resources director of Chemical Products Corp., expressing his gratitude to the speakers and instructors was a top priority.
"Has anyone told you they appreciated what you do?" Pickard asked each speaker at the end of each class. "Thank you for all you do."
Shinall said applications for the next BCSO Citizens Law Enforcement Academy will be available Jan. 2.
Applicants must be 18 years of age and pass a background check. Participants also will be fingerprinted during the course. The fee is $25, which covers the cost of materials for the class.
When the academy's return was announced in late summer, Millsap said educating the public was the primary goal of the course.
"We want the citizens to understand just exactly what we do in a real-life situation, not something on TV, to where they can get a glimpse into these guys and gals that put their life on the line every day, what they run into every night, what they see when they go to a call," he said. "We want the people to fully understand because a lot of people don't really see what these officers are doing out here. If they're pulled over on the side of the road or if two of them are sitting side by side, they may not be just shooting the breeze, they may be actually discussing a call that they just left or a call they're fixing to go on and how they're planning [it]. 'You take the back door, I'll take the front door.'"
Informing the community also can be beneficial to officers.
"See, I've said in the past that, you know, out here on the road I've got 10 to 12 officers a night. That's 20 to 24 sets of eyes. There's 100,000-something people in this county," Millsap said. "This, I hope, will bring them to where they want to get involved because you fall into that old stigma, 'I don't want to get involved,' and they'll turn a blind eye to it. When if they had just picked up the phone and said, 'Hey, such and such and so and so, and I know that's just happened.' If they saw a dope deal go down or if they saw something they thought might fixing to be happening and they just [thought], 'I saw that when I was in that class.' Call 911.
"... The more calls we get the more we can help slow down crime in this county. People will get involved."

Selecting Materials
The purpose in building a collection is to make available to all people who enter the library as comprehensive a collection of recorded knowledge as possible within the limits of funds available and the needs of the community. The library recognizes the needs of the community are of primary importance in selection and because the community is a conglomerate of individuals, each individual's needs will be considered in conjunction with the majority of the present and potential patronage. An effort is made to include information representing all sides of controversial issues as such material becomes available. The criteria for the selection of controversial materials are the same as for any other materials. Controversial materials have no distinguishing labels and are shelved in the general collection. Responsibility for the reading choices of children rests with their parents or legal guardians. Selection for the adult collection will not be inhibited by the possibility that materials may inadvertently fall into the hands of children. An open shelf policy will be followed at all times.
In accordance with the recommendations of the library's Board of Trustees, the Carbondale Public Library will allocate not less than 20% of its total budget on resources and materials for patrons every year. Serving Our Public: Standards for Illinois Public Libraries recommends a minimum of 12% for this purpose.
Statement of Purpose
This selection policy defines the standards and outlines the responsibility for materials selection for the Carbondale Public Library. Within these guidelines, the librarians use their professional judgment to determine the materials which best meet the objectives of the Library and the needs of its patrons.
Objectives in Materials Selections
The general objectives in materials selection are to carry out the Library's goals of providing the community with a variety of significant media to meet their informational, educational, and recreational needs.
Responsibility for Selection
Overall responsibility for collection development rests with the Library Director who operates within this framework of policies determined by the Library Board of Trustees. Typically, the Library Director delegates or shares this responsibility with designated members of the staff. No employee may be disciplined or dismissed for the selection of library materials when the selection is made in good faith and in accordance with the written policy required to be established pursuant to Illinois Library Law. Suggestions from patrons are welcome and will be considered using the same criteria as all other selections.
All requests are given serious consideration An attempt will be made to borrow through interlibrary loan any requested item which is out of print, or that the Library determines does not meet the criteria for purchase.
Criteria for Selection
The general criteria considered in selecting materials include: 1) significance and permanent value to the existing collection, 2) qualifications of author or producer, 3) suitability of subject and style for intended audience, 4) quality of format, 5) currency or timeliness if applicable, 6) demand by patrons, 7) price, 8) attention given to the item by reviewers and general news media, 9) availability of materials in other libraries, and 10) technical quality of non-book materials. In selection, consideration will be given to the work as a whole. No work shall be excluded solely because of specific passages or pieces taken out of context.
Selection Tools
Because it is impossible for librarians to examine all items being considered for purchase, they depend on reliable selection aids. The librarians regularly depend on the reviews found in standard sources. Other selection aids such as "Notable Book" lists chosen by the American Library Association, National Book Awards lists, Pulitzer Prize lists and published lists of bestsellers may also be used as required.
Scope of Collection
Materials will be selected in a variety of formats including, but not limited to, print, video, sound recording, and electronic media. Each type of material must be considered in terms of its own excellence and the audience for whom it is intended. No single standard can be applied in all cases. Some materials may be judged primarily in terms of artistic merit, scholarship, or value to humanity; others are selected to satisfy the informational, recreational, or educational interests of the community.
Through careful selection, the Library strives to maintain a diverse collection of quality materials, including items of contemporary significance and permanent value, as well as a selection of materials concerning social issues and ephemeral items. Circulating materials are supplemented by a variety of reference materials for in-house use. Because the Library serves a public embracing a wide range of ages, educational and cultural back-grounds, and reading skills, it will always seek to select materials of varying complexity.
Statement of Specific Policies in Selected Areas
- Materials for Children and Youth
In general the Carbondale Public Library subscribes to a policy of free access to library materials for minors. However, the library's Internet access is filtered and minors must have a signed parental permission form on file in order to use this resource. Children under 10 must have a parent/guardian present when using the Internet. At the Carbondale Public Library, children and young people have access to all parts of the Library; however, collections in Children's Services serve children and young people from preschool through eighth grades and their parents and care givers.
- Materials appropriate for the interests and needs of the ages served are chosen for this collection.
Collections in Children's Services include traditional picture books, beginning readers, junior non-fiction, junior fiction, junior high fiction, periodicals, nonbook materials, reference materials, and a collection on parenting. This last collection contains some duplication of materials on parenting found in the adult collection. A sampling of children's books in a variety of foreign languages is also selected for the Children's Services department. The junior high fiction collection is selected especially for the needs and interests of 7th and 8th graders. It contains some duplication of classic titles found in both the adult and junior fiction collections, but is also strongly stocked with those titles that deal with the contemporary scene as it concerns 12 to 14 year-olds. Young people in the 7th and 8th grades are expected to use non-fiction materials throughout the Library in preparing school assignments or for any other reason.
- Materials for Adults and Young Adults
The materials in Adult Services are selected primarily to serve the needs of adults and high school students; consideration is also given to the non-fiction needs of the middle school/junior high students. The collection includes reference and circulating non-fiction books, fiction books, and non-book materials.
- Fiction: The fiction collection provides books for a wide range of interests of the general reading public, including classics, titles representing periods and styles of writing, current titles of a lasting nature, and those titles meeting popular demand for recreational reading.
- Business Section: The Library purchases standard business directories and reference materials as well as popular circulating items which are of interest to the general public.
- Foreign Language Materials: Materials in foreign languages are considered as community needs change. Individual needs for foreign languages not purchased by the library may be served by requests through interlibrary loan.
- Literacy: Materials in the Literacy collection are selected to serve the needs of new adult readers and persons for whom English is a second language. There is heavy emphasis on materials teaching the basics of the English language and grammar, materials on coping with everyday life situations, and other high-interest, low reading-level fiction and nonfiction.
- Textbooks: Although the Library tries to serve students' needs as much as possible, textbooks are not purchased unless they are the best source of information on a given subject. The library policy is to purchase materials which will also supplement and complement the curriculum offerings of the public and private schools within the city.
- Non-Book Materials
The criteria for and the methods of selection of non-book materials are listed in Section IV.
Non-book items purchased by the library for in-house use or for circulation may include pamphlets, art prints, computer software, microfiche, compact discs and cassettes, recordings of books on cassette, cassette/book kits, games, toys, puzzles and puppets.
The acquisition of a variety of non-book materials is under constant evaluation and is subject to change. Cost of items, budget, use, and availability of new items are the determining factors in selection.
Strong objection to any library material must be made in writing according to "Procedures for Handling Complaints about Library Materials" provided at the end of this policy. Examination and reconsideration of materials, if necessary, will be handled as outlined in these procedures. A copy of these procedures as well as forms for registering complaints may be obtained from the circulation desk or the administrative office.
No book or other material in question is automatically removed from the collection because of an objection to it.
Collection Maintenance
- Duplicate Copies: The number of copies purchased varies with the expected use of any item. As extensive use for individual titles is demonstrated, duplication to meet the demand is implemented.
- Weeding: In order to maintain the best possible collection of materials, a continual weeding process takes place. Items are discarded if they are outdated, if they no longer circulate, if there are more duplicate copies than needed, or if they are in poor physical condition. Items discarded are plainly marked and may be donated to the Friends of the Library for sale.
Revision of Selection Policy
Because the needs of the community change, this materials selection policy is revised as needed and/or is reviewed at least every five years.
Procedures for Handling Complaints about Library Materials
- If patrons wish to file a complaint about library materials or to have materials reconsidered, the Complaint/Reconsideration Form should be completed. This form stays on file with the Library Director. The Library Director will examine the material, as well as critical reviews of the material.
- The Library Director will write a letter to the patron who initiated the complaint or request for reconsideration outlining the above procedures and announcing the disposition of the material in question. The letter may also include a statement inviting the patron to the library to discuss the matter with the Library Director.
- After an interview with the Library Director, a patron desiring further action can make a request in writing for a hearing before the Library Board of Trustees, who have final authority.

Why Cable TV in Ponce De Leon, MO
The team here at CableTV.com loves cable TV service in Ponce De Leon. Here are some reasons why we think you will too. Cable service is reliable; cable doesn't drop out in bad weather. Between the hundreds of HD channels and all the On Demand content, there is always something to watch. You'll get a better value with cable TV because the equipment is easier to install than satellite competitors require. And when you bundle it with high-speed internet, you get a fast internet connection, one low monthly bill, and can save up to $400 every year. Plus cable is:

TV Trends in Ponce De Leon, MO
If you thirst for cable TV knowledge, we can help. CableTV.com has cold-filtered cable data on tap and ready for consumption. Try this (it's on the house): almost everyone, or 97% of Americans, watches television as it is aired and roughly 33% of those TV viewers have at least four televisions in their homes. Upwards of 50% of people also stream video content online. Among those with cable TV, almost three-fourths bundle their service with high-speed Internet. Cable's ubiquitous national presence also helps explain how DVRs account for about 7% of America's total TV viewing.
All those stats mean that if you don't own at least one TV for every room in your house, chances are your neighbor to the left or right of you does. It also means that almost everyone you meet today will watch a TV tonight, and 57% of them will use either their DVR or their Internet to do so.
Why Choose Cable Internet in Ponce De Leon
Cable providers have so much more to offer than TV. That is why so many Ponce De Leon residents bundle cable services. Cable Internet is faster than most DSL services, providing downstream speeds 25%-100% faster than the national average. People who choose cable bundles also save money, roughly $42 every month they bundle TV and Internet. Both are very good explanations why cable Internet subscribers represent 32% of households, and how broadband penetration in Missouri grew to 64% by 2010.

Adams asked specifically about the estate tax, and Vilsack says the exemption needs to be raised to a point where family farms and small businesses are not threatened with sale or disrupted when ownership passes to the next generation. He says the President does not believe Bill Gates or Warren Buffet deserve tax breaks, but understands and appreciates that family farmers of this country do. The administration is encouraging congress to raise the exemption level significantly so that family farms and small businesses do not need to worry.
Adams asked the Secretary if the administration favors eliminating the estate tax altogether, and he answered no, the President does not intend to provide tax breaks to billionaires, but does want to protect family farms and small-business owners.Adams pointed out that farmers and ranchers have become increasingly concerned about over-regulation, particularly by other government agencies such as the EPA and the Labor Department. Vilsack says the administration has worked hard to ensure the USDA's sister agencies understand and appreciate the impact new rules will have on family farms and ranches. He has scheduled meetings between cabinet secretaries and commodity groups, and arranged for the EPA Administrator to visit farms, see how they work and how regulations could affect them.
Communication is critical between agencies, he says, and USDA's efforts have helped resolve some issues and prevent new regulations from other agencies. For example, he says, EPA recently issued a guidance on water issues instead of actual rules, in part because USDA convinced them farmers and ranchers are responsible stewards of the land and water. The President is very clear in that he wants agencies to work together, Vilsack says. He initiated the Rural Council, which Vilsack chairs, to coordinate and integrate efforts between agencies involved in rural issues. He expects those abilities to be enhanced in a second Obama term.
Adams noted that eventual passage of a farm bill likely will include significant budget cuts, requiring the USDA to do more with less. Vilsack responded by returning to the tax issue, saying that if the government cuts taxes for billionaires, they then need to either cut the budget or add to the deficit. The administration would rather tax the richest Americans than deal with "draconian cuts to farm programs." The Ryan budget, he notes, calls for $50 billion in cuts to crop insurance, conservation and commodities programs, which he says, seems a bit steep.

Sign up for a Crutchfield account Overview Details Staff Reviews Customer Reviews Q&A Articles & Videos Accessories Our take on the Parrot MKi9200 by Dominic Devito We carry cell phone kit harnesses that allow simple, plug-in connection of Parrot's Bluetooth car kits in a wide variety of vehicles. Hands-free calling and musical control Parrot's MKi9200 Bluetooth car kit links your compatible phone or device — such as the iPhone® 5S or newest Android™ smartphone — to just about any car stereo for hands-free calling through your car's speakers. It offers control over many portable music sources, including the iPod® and iPhone. Full-color display and great sound But this is not your ordinary Bluetooth car kit — you'll also hear high-quality audio from all your portables, including music streamed from your phone along with files stored on USB drives or SD™ cards. And if you want to treat your eyes as well as your ears, the MKi9200's full-color 2.4" display provides you with album artwork and your own favorite images to go along with the music. Easy to install The kit consists of three main components: a mute box that installs beneath the dashboard, a remote control keypad, and the display panel. The mute box connects to your stereo system with an optional vehicle-specific harness and to the display panel with a single wire. The MKi9200 connects to your Bluetooth phone automatically once you start your car. For those who carpool with other Bluetooth users, the MKi9200 can handle up to five Bluetooth devices at once. Talk with the MKi9200 With many phones, the voice-recognition software remembers up to 150 names from your address book — just say a name and the MKi9200 dials the number instantly. Using built-in text-to-speech technology, the MKi9200 can announce the names of your contacts, so you can browse through your phonebook or check out who's calling without taking your eyes off the road. See and hear everything clearly The MKi9200 mutes your car stereo when a call comes in, ensuring clear sound over your car's speakers. The included microphones feature noise-reducing technology that lets you speak clearly without having to shout. The MKi9200's screen displays phone numbers, caller names and images, and music information, including album covers and your favorite photos. You can easily remove the screen for safekeeping in the included carrying pouch when you're not in the car. Note: The MKi9200 cannot display contact photos directly from the iPhone. The MKi9200's built-in amplifier works in place of your factory radio's power section, for sound quality that surpasses other adapters and kits. You can bypass this feature if you're running an amplified or aftermarket system to keep the high-octane sound you've already got. Convenient operation The MKi9200 will guide you through dialing, accessing your phonebook, voicemail, and other phone functions while you concentrate on driving. You can use the keypad's scroll-knob to control the volume and browse menus, or to rewind, fast-forward, or jump to another song. Access email and text messages with your voice This device is now compatible with TextFriendly®, a service which allows you to access your email and text messages, all by voice activation. You can listen to, delete, compose, reply, and forward without taking your eyes off the road. TextFriendly also works with Facebook and Twitter updates, and is compatible with all phones that work with your Parrot device. You get six months of free service from Parrot — after that, you pay $4.99 a month, or $39.99 a year.

I bought this unit to replace a external visor mounted Bluetooth device that was not very efficient. I looked at what Crutchfield had to offer and liked the interface, screen and features of this unit. Officially the Parrot website states that this unit will not work in my car but the sales associate at Crutchfield assured me that this unit will fit with the Ford Adaptor. Installation was straight forward, I was fortunate because this vehicle has room in the dashboard area which allows for the added components. If your buying, make sure you allow for the Parrot connection box and the adaptors. Everything was straightforward and no cutting or splicing of wires was necessary. Initially the Parrot would not connect properly with my Windows Phone. After researching I found out that the software version of the Parrot was a bit dated and a newer version was available from the manufacturer complete with instructions. Once this was updated, the unit paired to my phone without any issues. One complaint I did have is the Parrot device will notify you of a message or email (in my case by playing my assigned ringtone) it will mute the music while that ringtone plays or even if your typing a message you will hear the clicks on your speakers. When the phone times off your music will then continue. Not sure if this is car stereo specific or not but sometimes annoying. Pros: Love the fact that this unit will plug right in without cutting into the factory harness. Nice user interface and easy to setup device. Cons: I have two phones Windows and Iphone. The Windows phone blocked this device from syncing contacts to it. The IPhone synced right up without prompting or asking for permission. Not sure if this is an issue for most but I would prefer an option before all my phone information transferred over. The adhesive backing on some of the components are not the strongest. I went with some Velcro which worked perfectly Was this review helpful? Yes | No 4 out of 5 Great Product! However . . . . Written By Michael, Miami, FL on Monday, March 10, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Product is all that. Great item, and given that the Parrot "hijacks" your speakers away from the car radio amp, the sound was surprisingly good. I can't detect any difference between the car radio music sound and the sound through BlueTooth. 100% would recommend. But installation (if you are also a do-it-yourself guy/gal) was an issue. First, I highly. recommend the Crutchfield wiring harness. It is well worth the slight additional cost. Second, Crutchfield did not include its own tip sheet or installation guide. What??? Isn't that a key reason to buy from Crutchfield??? Third, my first call to Crutchfield Tech Support resulted in an installation sheet being e-mailed to me. But it was so generic it was useless. Fourth, thanks to YouTube I was able to get really good instructions on taking apart the dash and installing the Parrot. Fifth, why doesn't Crutchfield include a wiring hook-up guide with the car-specific wiring harness? So a second cal the Tech Support . . . Pros: Great product, surprising good sound, at a fair price from a reputable company. Tech Support was most helpful, with minimum wait times. 100% recommend this product as long as a wiring harness is available for your make/model car. Cons: Installation is not intuitive for a DIY guy / gal. Hey Crutchfield, why not include a detailed installation tip sheet with each purchase? Or have one available online for: disassembly of the dash, and hook-up of the wiring harness? 2 out of 2 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes | No 5 out of 5 Mr Written By Eric S., Williston,North Dakota on Monday, January 20, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) This Bluetooth is great. I had one in my company truck. Sense then I now had put it in my wife's Avalanche and my Dodge ram. Crutchfield is a fantastic company to do business with. I just ordered my 65" led tv from them. Pros: The prices on everything is great. Very easy company to deal with Was this review helpful? Yes | No 3 out of 5 All the stuff you want...and the problems that you don't Written By Andy, Texas on Monday, November 04, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) If you're intuitive, you can figure out the install. As for the device executing its features, it falls pretty flat. It has real issues when you have two paired devices in the vehicle at the same time. It cannot figure out which to make priority and when. Once you finally get the streaming music feature to work, it has real issues doing anything from another phone. And for some reason, when my any phone paired to it gets a message or email, it will pause the music for 5 seconds (without making a beep for message) and then resume. It does the same pause after every phone call and feature change. The biggest flaw is that you have to use the volume on the device only. Your radio inputs cannot be used for this... do not believe what they tell you... unless there is another adapter that I/they are completely unaware of, you cannot adjust the volume on this Bluetooth device using any other input that its own remote. this is highly frustrating when you are talking to someone and have to switch back and forth. All in all, the product has all the great features you want but little in the way of execution. For instance, your nav voice will come across the device on your radio. Nice right? But after the nav voice talks twice, for some reason it can no longer play the nav voice and it comes across very garbled. And yes, I've reset the device to factory settings multiple times. No dice. Pros: screen is clear, if small. takes up little room on the outside but a lot of room inside your dash. voice clarity is solid while blocking out background noise. Cons: install instructions were pathetic (even if they aren't really needed), execution of each feature is pretty weak, if you lose the remote you lose ALL functionality (no buttons on screen or other way to control), little individual setup options (set up is very basic and doesn't explain what its own features mean/do). 1 out of 1 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes | No 3 out of 5 Non-intuitive interface, marginal instructions, partially DOA Written By Bill, Timnath, CO on Wednesday, August 28, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) The unit does not acknowledge my iPod when I connect it. The AUX jack is similarly non-function out of the box. When I play music from a USB device, it seems to lock on to it. I usually give up on trying to use a different function again until I can power cycle it by turning off the car. Having the marginally useful and incomplete instructions online only (as opposed to a paper user manual) makes it difficult to work through the non-intuitive interface while sitting in the car. There seems to be no plain, solid color background option for the display. The color picture backgrounds just make it hard to read text on the display. I'm working with Customer Service on getting a replacement unit but being ignored. Pros: The hands-free phone feature works well enough. Cons: The microphone makes the driver sound like under water. The iPod connector and AUX jack never worked. 1 out of 1 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes | No 5 out of 5 Works well... Straight forward install Written By Paul, Wisconsin on Wednesday, August 07, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Works exactly as advertised. Straight forward installation. Order the harness for your car. Pros: Works well. Easy install. Cons: The control strapped to the steering wheel gets in the way when steering so I occasionally end a call as the steering wheel slides through my hands. 1 out of 1 people found this helpful Was this review helpful?

Yes | No 5 out of 5 Awesome alternative for factory head unit Written By Ryan R, Winder, GA on Sunday, May 05, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) This is a great alternative for a car with a difficult to replace factory head unit. Call clarity is excellent. It can play from most any digital music source. If there is a negative at all, it is that you can't equalize the sound of music played through bluetooth from your phone, and it is very bass heavy. Still high quality sound, though. Pros: Ease of use, call clarity, sound quality, flexability. Cons: Inability to EQ the sound on bluetooth. 1 out of 1 people found this helpful Was this review helpful?

With the wiring kit I purchased with this product it was a simple plug and play installation. It flawlessly streams music from my phone and makes and receives calls with problem. It was a simple process to pair my phone. Pros: Easy installation Works great Cons: None Was this review helpful? Yes | No 1 out of 5 vw owner disappointed Written By vw owner, denver co on Sunday, February 10, 2013 I don't usually review things I buy like this but as there is not a lot of info out there on exactly how this device interfaces with the car stereo I felt I had to do it as I was EXTREMELY disappointed. I have a 2007 passat and was fed up with my USA spec iPod interface and wanted bluetooth phone interactivity so I looked around and after finding OEM head units were 1000$ plus decided just to do an aftermarket bluetooth device. I had high hopes for the Parrot. Here are my problems with the device: 1. the biggest problem is how it interacts with the factory stereo. it basically "steals" the speakers from it which means that when you stream music via blue tooth or through the ipod connection or SD card or line in or usb the volume and EQ controls on my VW's stereo are disabled. as a music geek this is extremely annoying and would have been a deal-breaker had I known this was the case. maybe I didn't do enough research but the guy who installed it said I could still use the volume knob on the dash and my steering wheel to control volume. not so. they make another steering wheel control adapter but I was told it interfered with the way the controls worked with the factory stereo and I believe them. 2. when the iphone in my pocket is linked via bluetooth, ANY use of the phone cuts the audio from my factory radio/cd player. even unlocking the screen to check the maps etc. very annoying. the music cuts out abruptly just so I can hear the "click" from my phone. Pros: lots of features Cons: very badly designed 7 out of 9 people found this helpful Was this review helpful?

How cool is this product, blue tooth turns on automatically and your ready to go when you hop in the car. The option to play music from your phone is a huge bonus. I recommend this product. Was this review helpful? Yes | No 4 out of 5 Easy install. Nice Written By 32Tudor, Skillman, NJ on Wednesday, December 26, 2012 Install was easy with the correct harness. Everything worked right out of the box. Also took a gamble on an "open box", but to Crutchfield's credit, everything was there and everything worked. Pros: Easy interface. Nice small non-intrusive remote, screen and microphones. Cons: Voice recognition or microphone doesn't seem to understand voice commands. Not sure , but if I annunciate loudly and clearly, it sometimes gets it. I tried turning Microphone volume up, but not sure it helped. Was this review helpful? Yes | No 5 out of 5 Parrot MKi9200 Written By Tyler, Idaho on Saturday, December 08, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) This unit outperforms anything else I have tried. This unit sounds as good in my 2000 Tahoe as the Sync system in my 2012 Ford F350. Way better than ANY factory Toyota system I have heard. I think the Parrot system is easier to use with Apple products than others. Pros: Works as good or better than a factory installed system. Cons: Installation is not easy, plan on a several hour install. The company supplies minimal paper directions with the unit. Their website has the info but is too deep in the website making it tough to find. You Tube was very helpful. Was this review helpful? Yes | No 5 out of 5 Parrot MKi9200 Written By Big_Shadow67, Lynden, WA on Saturday, November 10, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Installation is not for the rookie installer, especially with the instructions from Parrot. REcommend to a newbie to get a professional installation. Probably will cost you 2 hours worth of labor. The unit once installed is fantastic. As others have said, the microphone and sound people hear on the bluetooth phone connection is fantastic. The unit also has a setting to help if there are extraneious noise from like an open window or sunroof. Just fantastic. Operating the unit through the small remote is mostly intuitive, and the sound quality is fantastic using bluetooth, sd card, and USB stick. The ipod connection is a great interface and still gives you great maneuverability to get the music you want from the Parrot menu system. Sound is phenominal as well. The 3.5mm stereo connection works well, but the sound quality is not on par with the other connection types, which is typical for any device using 3.5mm to deliver the music. It basically is pushing music through a speaker lead to be just played through another device, in this case the Parrot. Tolerable, but you are talking to audiophile guy. Anyhow you have so many other ways to listen with the USB, SD card, Bluetooth, and the Ipod interface. Once installed you will be very happy with this product. Pros: Great Sound, nice and compact, fantastic display screen, kit provides everything you need to install in a vehicle. Cons: Poor installation instructions. Just watch a Youtube video bfore DIY. I did, and had no issues. 1 out of 1 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes | No 4 out of 5 Works with the new iphone 5. Written By djluces, Houston,tx on Friday, October 12, 2012 Hi all, I installed the Parrot MKI 9200 in my car a few days ago. It works great! I also have the new iphone 5 and it works great using blue-tooth. I noticed when using Siri, the voice control settings on the MKI 9200 must be set to use the phone's voice control and the microphone level adjusted to a higher level if Siri does not respond. This solved the slow response I was having from Siri the first few days. I realized Siri couldn't hear me. So I raised the microphone volume and that solved it for me. I get streaming album and track info but no album art. I hope that the next firmware update will include album art over blue-tooth streaming and a lightning jack cable is made available soon. Pros: works and sounds great. Cons: Sometimes remote is slow to respond. 1 out of 1 people found this helpful Was this review helpful?

Out of all the bluetooth hands-free products I have tried, this one is the best. It is very easy to use and was fairly simple to install. I would strongly recommend this kit.

Great for Iphone and other phoned and terrific interconnectivity with an IPOD Pros: Great for Iphone and other phoned and terrific interconnectivity with an IPOD.Worked excellently first time out after installation. Cons: Not for the faint of heart to do self installation unless you really know what you are doing or have someone with hands on experience ( which I had). Was this review helpful? Yes | No 5 out of 5 Just what I needed!!! Written By CurtL, Virginia Beach on Wednesday, September 12, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Have a 2010 Honda Civic, replacing the factory radio with an aftermarket while doable would have been a long reach to the controls and I have long arms. The Parrot provided a great way to connect my Iphone and use it easily. I bought the installation as the installation process looked more complicated than I wanted to try. Abe at Crutchfield was really helpful. Only gripe is that the installer mounted the microphone to the windshield and it picks up road noise so I will have to move it. Pros: Nice way to add Bluetooth to your car stereo. Cons: Lots of menu options to explore, somewhat intuitive, but not well documented. Was this review helpful? Yes | No 4 out of 5 Bought MKi9200 year ago Written By DeWayne, San Juan,TX on Tuesday, June 26, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I first learned about Parrot via Popular Mechanics about a little over a year ago. I drive alot for my job, service work, and need to be able to connect to my customers on the go without endangering myself or other drivers. Not to mention, some places, it's illegal to talk on cell phones while driving. I purchased the MKi9200 kit along with the factory wiring harness for my 2007 Chevrolet Uplander. I installed myself, which wasn't bad since Crutchfield provided the schematics to help disassembly my factory car stereo. The only problem was finding power for the unit. I tapped into the fan blower DC power for a source (worked great). The unit worked great! Call quality was great, my customers couldn't tell if I was using a hands free device and sounded as if I was talking with the phone up to my ear. The noise cancellation also works, road noise cut dramatically. I have a few minuses about this product, otherwise I would have gave it 5 stars. First, the wireless controller is flimsly. I mounted it on my steering wheel and everytime I accidentally hit it, it wanted to come apart. The controller is flimsly and needs to be improved, perhaps one solid piece instead of what looks like a snapped together device. I have had the device lock up on me a few times. However, cycling power reset it and it worked great. Overall, I am pleased with the product and recommend it to anyone looking to get a hands free kit. Pros: Great call clarity, noise suppression works. Boom microphone is great! Voice recognition works great with phone book. Streams music great! With a factory radio no sound problems as with a higher end system. Cons: Wireless controller flimsy. Voice recogniition works only with phone book names. You cannot say "call XXX-XXX-1234" it doesn't recognize numbers only phone book names. Bluetooth sometimes doesn't sync music and you must use menu to recognize bluetooth for music. 4 out of 4 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes | No 1 out of 5 TERRIBLE!! What a ripoff Written By Vinnie, Birmingham, AL on Wednesday, June 13, 2012 This is the worst hands free, bluetooth, electronic product for your car. I got it as a gift from my wife for Christmas and I was provided the name of an "authorized" installer who gouged me for $290.00 to install this already overpriced piece of junk, and I am still not sure they installed it correctly. Everyone that calls me complains that they can't hear me so I end up dangerously juggling my phone or pulling over to deactivate the system. It is constantly locking up my iphone, locking up my radio or cd player, and the remote answer knob on the steering wheel works only half the time and the sound is terrible. I really wish I could get our money back. We will never by a Parrrot product, I am at a loss as to how anyone can market such a huge piece of junk. Shame on you Crutchfield for reccomending this item to my wife. Pros: None Cons: Locks up, poor reception and sound quality, controls fuction half the time, no users manual of instructions.

Lifetime tech support comes with every Crutchfield purchase. 1 out of 6 people found this helpful Was this review helpful?

This product offers bluetooth and much more and you can keep the orginal look of you car or truck. Pros: Can keep orginal look of or car or truck.Bluetooth and much more features are included. Cons: When getting open box item the battery for the controler should be replaced with a new one. I needed to replace the one that came with the open box I got after a week. Was this review helpful? Yes | No 3 out of 5 Parrot MKi9200 Written By rtf, Newburgh, NY on Thursday, December 01, 2011 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Installation with the custom wiring harness was a breeze, setup was also clear and easy. Screen is excellent. Unit worked fabulously well for about 18 months, then began to lock up, auto power down, fail to power up, etc. Link-up to my Droid X phone began to throw the unit into a tailspin. Software updates made the problems worse. Ultimately had to replace the unit in less than two years. The price of this unit per year to have blue tooth and iPod connectivity is a little steep. In this day and age electronics really should last more than 18 months in regular service. If an 18-month replacement cycle fits into your budget, buy this unit. If not, look elsewhere. Pros: When it works, it's fabulous. Cons: Died in less than two years. Parrot didn't stand behind the unit 7 out of 7 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes | No 2 out of 5 VERY weak sound Written By friend2dawgs, Chicago on Sunday, July 17, 2011 here is something they don't tell you, this thing overrides your existing radio/amplifier so when you listen to your ipod you will likely loose significant power. In my case the factory stereo in my car is a decent HK stereo, and when using the Parrot the max volume is 50%, literally, of the factory unity. So if you plan to use this for music as much as for phone, and you like to listen to your music at more than half volume then look for another system. 11 out of 11 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes | No 5 out of 5 Great for factory alternative. Written By Tim H, Venice, FL on Wednesday, May 11, 2011 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I bought this because it looked like a great alternative to the add-on Bluetooth that was available through my local Honda dealer for about $500. I was a little skeptical, but it works great. I will admit that if the reason you are purchasing is to listen to your mp3 player through the speakers, you may be let down. If you are buying it to have hands free phone conversations, you will be very pleased. One of the things I wanted was something that cut off the stereo when a call came in, and that feature works flawlessly. The voice recognition works great as well. 5 out of 5 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes | No 5 out of 5 It's changed my commute !!

Yes | No 2 out of 5 Just OK Written By Mike, Sacramento, CA on Monday, February 07, 2011 It's just OK. It is a pain to cycle through music. It doesn't remember where you left off. The system locks up frequently requiring it to re-boot. Updates are not real easy. You have to use a USB and transfer files from your computer then to the Parrot. It gets confused handling multiple calls, call waiting, etc. Bottom line, I wouldn't get another one for my other car. 7 out of 7 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes | No 5 out of 5 Crutchfield saves the day Written By mb stapley, Glendale, AZ on Tuesday, December 28, 2010 I bought both the MKI9200 Parrot and the Crutchfield wiring harness for my Toyota Highlander. I scratched my head a bit about how to do this, but when I took a look at the connectors provided, there was only one way to put it together and it worked perfectly - the first time. Thank goodness for Crutchfield's expertise and cabling! While the device is great, it would have been a nasty install without the flawless connection. Thanks! 1 out of 1 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes | No 5 out of 5 Best Bluetooth Device EVER!!! Written By lambeau40, Benton, WI on Wednesday, November 17, 2010 I used to use the small ear devices for bluetooth. I hate the way they look and feel. I found myself not using it. I then researched factory bluetooth options for my 08 GMC. My dad has a truck similar with the bluetooth. I just thought the quality of the calls were a little poor. After reading about the MKi with the double mic I thought I would give it a try. I would never go back now! The clarity of this is excellent on both ends. The remote is also an excellent idea. Instead of reaching for the radio to turn the volume down you just use the remote. I also love the USB port for music. EXCELLENT!!! 1 out of 1 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes | No 4 out of 5 Easy install with Harness Written By Dwight, East Brunswick N.J. on Saturday, November 13, 2010 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I ordered the harness with the parrot, set it up on the kitchen table. Would have been nice if the harness had instructions but I figured it out using common sense. The install was easy once i got the existing radio out and it would have been nice if a trim removal tool was included with the harness or at least offered. I cut into the plastic dash to remove a section hidden by the trim for the display wire. The only issue was running the microphone to the rear view mirror so it would not be ugly. I decided to mount it on the dash in front of the driver and the wire runs out of site in the instrument panel area. It works great, great product.. Was this review helpful? Yes | No 4 out of 5 Parrot MKi9200 Written By Biggeek, Santa Clara, CA on Tuesday, September 21, 2010 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) This is a nice little unit and integrated well into my RAM 1500 quad cab. There are a lot of positive feature reviews so I won't repeat what most people already say, but I want to talk about the functionality that I did not understand before purchasing. 1.) Loss of tone control - The built-in balance, bass, and treble controls are bypassed - it's OK because the Parrot has an EQ setting and sound control features, but it's not as convenient as grabbing the knob and turning. 2.) iPhone is a software device - be vigilant with Parrot software updates. I find it's best to not be an early adopter of the iPhone software releases until Parrot has had some time to release patches to their ROM for the new iOS versions. Most recently, the 4.1 iOS update had my Parrot 9200 power-cycling about every 2 minutes. I thought at first that I had a loose wire, but the Parrot power-cycled even with the car parked, until I took my iPhone out of range, then all was quiet. After applying the 1.62 ROM all my problems went away. Don't get me wrong. I love this thing, but it's definitely not "set it and forget it." 4 out of 4 people found this helpful Was this review helpful?

The interface is perfect. The voice dial functions and address book synchronization work great. A2DP streamed audio flawlessly from my Android-based HTC Evo phone. iPod interface is a bonus above the bluetooth features. Displays album art while listening and you can browse your iPod from the display. One feature of this unit that shows how refined the design is, if you turn off your car while on a call, the unit will stay on, prompting you to transfer the call to your phone, or it will stay on until you hang up the call. I've seen no other BT device offer this feature (and it is really useful.) 7 out of 7 people found this helpful Was this review helpful?

Initially I bought the MKi9100 but I found the display was too small and too dim to be usable. I was very disappointed and returned it for this model, the MKi9200. The LCD display on this model is very readable and a lot more useful than the 9100. Definitely spend the extra $$$ to get the 9200 as it is well worth it. I am completely satisfied with the display, the Bluetooth and MP3 connections and the sound quality of this unit. The MKi9200 Rocks and I wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone who needs add on Bluetooth and MP3 capability to their factory car stereo. 3 out of 3 people found this helpful Was this review helpful?

Written By lizzy, boston, ma on Saturday, May 22, 2010 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) ordered this along with t-harness for toyota & trim removal tools. removed a stock 6-disc radio & an already installed aftermarket (disappointing) handsfree bluetooth/ipod kit - not from parrot. total time for removal & install about 3 hours. t-harness made it so simple. no cutting/splicing. using iphone 3G & an ipod classic. it sounds great & does what its supposed to do. so far have only made a few calls but everyone says i sound clear and hear no echo like with previous kit. making & receiving calls couldn't be easier. can't wait for my next road trip! 4 out of 4 people found this helpful Was this review helpful?

Installation was quite simple with the bluetooth cable I bought seperate. It took me a little over two hours to install. The sound is clear during a call. There's no feed back at all. I would highly recommend this product to anyone who is looking for a great handsfree device for their vehicle. 2 out of 2 people found this helpful Was this review helpful?

I had limited experience with installing a car radio/ add on. After speaking with your sales department I was encouraged to install this unit myself. My vehicle needed a wiring harness which made the installation very easy. I called your techical department twice just to make sure I was doing it right. They were very helpful and patient with my concerns. The installation took me about 3 hours. I am still learning all of the functions of this unit but I am pleased with it so far. It's just what I needed. I have even encouraged friends to get one and will help with their installation. 1 out of 1 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes | No 5 out of 5 WOW! What a nice add-on Written By Mikel, Bryan, TX on Wednesday, December 16, 2009 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) We installed this in my wife's 04 Suburban so she would be able to safely talk on the phone while driving. We were pleasantly surprised by the sound quality of phone calls. We were even more surprised by the sound quality of music played through this unit from my iPhone 3G (using the ipod connector), and her Blackberry 8300 (using the line-in connector.) SUPERB SOUND!!! My wife says the music sounds better than radio or satellite radio or cd; I agree with her. The install took me 5 hours and was not for the feint of heart. I have done several car audio installs and had all of the necessary tools. I also bought an amplified harness (an extra $150) to help me and ensure all functions were enabled. Our Suburban has the premium Bose system and required a tougher install. If you are not ABSOLUTELY sure that you know what you are doing then get a professional to install this. I will buy these units for every vehicle I own form here on out! Awesome item! 3 out of 3 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes | No 4 out of 5 Parrot MKi9200 Written By Kim, Gaston, Oregon on Wednesday, November 25, 2009 The Parrot is a superb unit with many useful features. Installation is very easy with the purchase of custom cables. The Parrot is easy to set up with the useful menus. A previous review stated that the provided adhesive for the display module was not useful. That is my experience also but is easily resolved with a purchase of 3M two-sided foam tape. The greatest source of frustration is from cell telephone manufacturers who simply don't want to provide support beyond their own case. It would be very nice if Parrot would provide information on other Bluetooth devices and their interaction with them. I would definitely reccommend the Parrot '9200 to anyone considering the purchase of a solid telephone interface. 1 out of 1 people found this helpful Was this review helpful?

Hands free phone worked very well from beginning. Had trouble with Ipod staying muted. Upgraded to latest IPhone and Parrot firmware with resolution of problem most of the time. Still have muting problems occassionally. Seems to resolve with disconnecting then reconnecting IPhone cable. Instructions for updating Parrot were not clear. Can not connect Parrot directly to PC. Have to download upgrade from PC to flash memory stick then connect memory stick to Parrot USB cable. 4 out of 4 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes | No 4 out of 5 Parrot MKi9200 Written By Mark, Ypsilanti, MI on Wednesday, March 25, 2009 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I was looking for a bluetooth hands free unit and iPod/iPhone integration. I looked at the Alpine product but did not like the fact that it does not work with the iPhone 3G. Also, you must have an aux-in to have acceptable sound. I bought the Parrot MKi9200 and installed it myself. This was very easy since I bought adapters. Overall the product performs well, I was surprised by the sound quality since the blue box that houses the electronics and amp is so small and light... The display is easy to place anywhere but the tape that is supplied to stick it does not last longer than a few days. The cable holds it in place so it is not a big issue for me but it can be if the display does not rest on a surface. Somehow my iPhone 3G does not charge nor connects using the cable. Bluetooth works fine and the sound quality of incoming and outgoing calls is very good. I will try to download latest software to fix the iPhone 3G issue. Also at times the iPod I connected starts playing the first track on the iPod instead of starting where it left off. Apart from the issues mentioned above I am satisfied with the unit but I expect Parrot to work on those glitches. 7 out of 7 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes | No 4 out of 5 It does it all very well Written By Oliver, Colorado on Monday, February 09, 2009 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I was looking for something that could add bluetooth and ipod integration for my 3g iPhone. I did not want to hassle with installing a new deck because my stock one works just fine. I have a Mazda 3 with stock sirius and bose installed. Unfortunately for me, that meant that I could not add anything else... until parrot came out with the MKi9200. This thing addressed all of my issues with minimal hassle. It works. My calls sound great and the iPhone plays music right through my stock stereo. I would give it 5 out of 5 stars except for some minor issues. Issue one: sometimes my iphone 3g does not recognize when it is connected to the dock connector. It happens rarely, and generally all I need to do is disconnect and reconnect. However on rare occasions I have to disconnect the Parrot head unit to restart it. This is minor, but annoying when it happens. Issue 2: because this is a pass through device, it works independently of my car stereo. That means that the volume is controlled by the parrot remote, and not my car stereo volume. You get used to it, but it is a second control. Lastly issue 3: if you want to listen to your radio and not the device connected to this sucker, then you have to pause it so that it knows to un-mute your stereo. Again no big deal, but it takes getting used to. Issues aside, this thing really does answer all my needs. It works great, and will only get better with Parrots firmware updates. They have a winner with this product. 36 out of 41 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes | No 5 questions already asked Show all answers Is it possible to use an iPod for the music and an iPhone for calls? In other words, can I listen to my iPod and when a call comes in, answer it using the iPhone? Thanks... [ ty1911 Aug 18, 2014 ] 8 answers Yes and no, depends on how you have what connected. The "yes" way is simple, have your iPod connected to the iPod connector and have the iPhone paired via Bluetooth. When you play Music, it can be from your iPod but when a call comes in the Parrot device is smart nought to momentarily switch. So far this has been a pretty good unit, installed in Honda Accord 2005 [ Casey Aug 20, 2014 ] Thanks to everybody who replied. I am confident in this purchase. Alan [ ty1911 Aug 20, 2014 ] pretty sure that would work just fine...it would just be a different input that is 'interrupted' when a call comes in (i.e., aux vs. radio)...what I'm not sure of, however, is how this would work if both units were connected via bluetooth...would assume it would be fine as the parrot would route the call to whatever device you designated as 'phone' during initial pairing...if there are issues, you could always just connect your ipod using a usb cable...we don't use the usb on the parrot as my wife's vehicle came with a usb port on factory sound system...great little unit...good luck! [ MATT Aug 19, 2014 ] Yes, I do that all the time. I have my Ipod in my truck all the time connect through the provided hardwire cable and use it for music playback, my iphone automatically connects when I enter the truck through Bluetooth and when a call comes in it shuts off the Ipod feed and lets me answer the phone call. Hope this helps, Dan [ Daniel Aug 19, 2014 ] Not sure. I set this up for my daughter and she uses ipod for music and android for calls. It works like you described for that setup. [ PATRICK Aug 19, 2014 ] I can do this with 2 phones, so I am assuming you could do the same with an iPod and iPhone. I can be listening to music on one phone and answer calls on both. [ ERIC Aug 19, 2014 ] I believe you can. I keep an ipod permanently connected and use a separate phone for calls and occasional blue tooth music. [ MARK Aug 19, 2014 ] You should be able to. I have not made / received a call while using a connected ipod. But I have while using the USB and AUX inputs. Whenever your iphone is connected to the Parrot it will push the call to the speakers and microphone. Same goes for using the parrot to make calls while connected to the AUX or USB. I assume this would be the same for the iPod. [ ANDREW Aug 19, 2014 ] With a car full of people, does it have a privacy function to take it off speaker? [ Danny Reynolds Jul 31, 2014 ] 3 answers Yes it does, it has a "transfer to phone" option. [ ERIK M Aug 01, 2014 ] If you want to use it privately, you will need to have your phone against your ear anyway. So, you would just press the Source button on your phone to change from Bluetooth to "regular" phone mode. There is not a function, per se, on the parrot that I'm aware of since, again, you'd need to have your phone in hand anyway. Hope this helps. [ Ralph Aug 01, 2014 ] You can mute the microphone so caller cannot hear anyone in your car but that is about it. Just like mute on a cell phone. [ JAMES G Aug 01, 2014 ] do you know of a connector for a 1998 Cadillac? [ Rosemary Feb 10, 2014 ] 1 answer You will want to contact an Advisor by phone (1-800-324-9695) or online chat to discuss compatibility with your factory system. They will be able to pull up your vehicle and see if this will integrate. If it does not, then they will also be able to discuss other options with you. [ Jeff Staff Feb 10, 2014 ] I am considering this product for my 2007 volvo xc90, but i am reading that some sort of "QuickConnect" installation needs to be purchased separately? Can you confirm? [ Brandon Jan 20, 2014 ] 1 answer For details on fit or installation please contact an Advisor by phone (1-800-324-9695) or online chat. They will be able to pull up your vehicle and give you the details on what you will need.
