Hey guys! So I don't really post much on here but I can across an add on accessory I wanted to share with you guys. It's called the Kinivo BTC450 and I must say, this thing is pretty amazing... It's a Bluetooth device that streams music and makes hands free calls much simpler. At first I was skeptical using this after trying the belkin Bluetooth car kit, but this thing is much better for half the price. My biggest issue was music quality, and this thing literally sounds like you're wired by an auxiliary, I hear no difference. As for the belkin I heard reduced bass and a lot of irritating background static. I plugged this thing into the cigarette lighter and into an auxiliary I made in my stock stereo (a ground loop isolator was also used to help insure no background static). Anyways here are some pictures of the kit installed in my 97 sc300. And here's the amazon link in case anyone is interested: http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B009NL...ims_9?pi=SS115

I was looking into this as well. How is the quality of voice calls? Do voice calls go over the car's speakers?

Voice calls sound good, but the volume might need to be raised to hear. and yes it does play through the cars speakers.
