When I bought my '87 from the original owner, it had a the dealer-installed telephone option.

This setup included a remote mic located in the dash near the underside of the steering wheel hub. I don't know if the remote mic was original, or was later added. Amusingly, the phone included a handset with coil cord that connected it to the under-seat radiotelephone unit.

Of course, this was not a modern system. But the fact that it was included indicates that hands-free calling in a 911 is possible, even with the lower-tech microphones & noise cancellation that existed at that time. But that was with the original exhaust system, not the Euro premuffler and 2-out sport exhaust I installed.

Btw, I held on to the unit, so I can make the car 100% period original.

My daughter called it a "spy phone" because it looks like Sean Connery era James Bond technology.
