I have a 2008 IS250 with the base radio (non-navigation and non-Bluetooth). I’d like to add Bluetooth in the most factoryish way possible. (Not a huge fan of third party Bluetooth kits as they seem to have pretty bad reviews.)
Is it possible for me to purchase a used radio with Bluetooth built-in, or purchase the navigation version of the radio, again with Bluetooth integrated? Or do I need to purchase an OEM module or kit to add this functionality? I’m not opposed to keeping the stock radio now, if it’s as simple as adding a factory module and microphone.
There is no factory Bluetooth audio module for 06-08 IS250/350. You would have to go with 3rd party bluetooth option. There are plenty of them available
This is what I did for my wife's 2007 IS250 since she wanted rear camera and bluetooth.
Used the Scosche Dash kit with Pioneer Stereo + Pioneer rear camera + few other things.
OEM was base stereo.

How is that unit working for you guys? I read some less than stellar reviews on that kit online.
