Default Phone can stream music through bluetooth to car audio on 2006 GS?

Hey guys! Long time lurker (had my 2001 ES300 for four years and joined before purchase) and first time poster.

I just picked up a 2006 GS300 AWD and wanted to setup my phone to stream Google Play Music through the bluetooth to the head unit... Is this possible? Or am I going to have to hack into the back wires like I did with my ES300 in order to setup an AUX line and connect a bluetooth adapter?

Help!

Or, bring it into a Lexus dealer and have them run the tests, you may qualify for a free (to you) $9,000 repair on your 2006 GS300 (I did, mine had about 110,000 on it when they did the work last year). They kept my GS for a week (free new loaner ES), showed me the total repairs of over $9k, and it was $0 for me.

I don't have the link, but there is a thread on this site about the warranty fix for this issue.

Piston ring job? *he asked with apprehension and a sinking sense of dread *
