I don't know for sure for this particular Bluetooth GPS, but normally choosing NMEA 0183 Bluetooth and your outgoing Bluetooth COM port in TomTom GPS is all that's needed.

Be aware that recent devices, especially those running Windows Mobile 2003 Second Edition, tend not to work properly until you upgrade to TomTom GPS 3.07 (which can be found on the TomTom web site, or on the update CD if you have one of those in your Navigator 3 pack).
