I have a full car kit with bullbar antennae for a samsung phone. Works realy
well and gives extra coverage, but phone no longer works.
Does any one know if you can adapt this to a new nokia 6255 cdma mobile phone, without pulling out the whole system and replacing it.

Hi mutly, if the kit is one designed for the Samsung phone, eg. it sits in a purpose built cradle that only the Samsung will fit, the answer is probably no.
If it is a patch cable which only the antenae is plugged into the back of the phone you should be able to buy a patch cable to suit the Nokia.
If it is a Samsung dedicated kit it might be a cheaper option to buy another Samsung or get it repaired.
If it is a dedicated Samsung kit and it is for the SCH N181 and you go with the nokia option let me know and I would br interested in the car kit
Will

does the Nokia 6255 (or whaever0 have provision to fit a patch cable? My 6385 does but a lot of the new Nokias don't so NO patch lead is going to work cos it don't connect

I think it is a big No, on that one.
I tried it with my car kit. Had an Erickson in-car kit and the phone had packed in, went and brought new Nokia tried to just get the cradle changed over to suet the phone but no need to buy a hole new kit for $400 I think it was. I did not buy the kit as it is a GSM phone.
