For hands free phone calls
but my phone has a microphone
Yes, and many regions currently ban any phone usage while driving, including taking phone calls. A hands-free system makes this task much easier.
but my phone microphone can be used during a call with car audio
Why don't you stick your phone in your pocket or a cupholder and then make that phone call.
it's mounted on the dash
you're really not getting the whole "car speakers, phone microphone" setup, are you
Not legal in several areas.
in which places is a dash-mounted phone illegal?
