Problem Pairing iPhone with MP3 Sunglasses

This is a long shot, but I've been trying to pair my MP3 Sunglasses with BT to my iPhone. The iPhone recognizes it and and offers to pair it if I can produce the correct PIN. Since I don't have the doc for the sunglasses I cannot. An example of these type sunglasses can be found at http://www.amazon.com/Color-Bluetooth-Sunglasses/dp/B001N4O2V0/ref=sr15?ie=UTF8&s=office-products&qid=1253726168&sr=8-5

These type sunglasses are all over Ebay and they actually work quite well. It would be even better of I could pair it with my iPhone and get my music from there. Anyone run into this before and have any idea what the default PIN could be?

Thanks,Jim

Have you tried 0000? Have you searched the internet or contacted the manufacturer? What happened to the documents that came with the sunglasses?

Son of a gun, I tried 000 before and nothing, then I tried your suggestion of 0000 and that paired them. Seems to work OK as a BT phone answering headset since I would already be wearing the sunglasses but unfortunately I don't think it will send the music which is what I had hoped. Kind of hard to search the internet since I can't even figure out who makes these. Lost the doc or at least misplaced it. No big deal it was an experiment. Thanks for the reply.

If you are using a 1st Gen iPhone, or a iPhone 3G still on firmware 2.x you won't be able to play audio through bluetooth. The iPhone 3G on firmware 3.x and the iPhone 3GS can play audio through the bluetooth as long as your headset supports it.
