Default Can you pair Bluetooth audio device in RX 350 2008?

I wanna buy a used RX 350 2008, but I wanna know if it's possible to pair my iPhone with the audio system and listen and control the music through the steering wheel buttons?

Thanks a lot!

No, only your phone calls will play over the speakers using bluetooth.

There are options in the aftermarket, though.

It's doubtful you will receive a reply from the OP as the thread is over 2 years old. However using the search this forum with the keyword "Bluetooth Audio" bring up numerous thread on this topic. Such as:

There are a number of companies that make aftermarket interfaces for factory audio systems and some of them include bluetooth audio streaming. USA Spec is just one example. I can't list every company out there off the top of my head but a quick Google search should turn up other options as well as referencing prior discussions as suggested above.

Please refer to this thread:

https://www.clublexus.com/forums/rx-...-04-07-rx.html

Please also follow this link to an aftermarket's website:

As I indicated in one of my previous posts, I am thinking of buying the VAISTECH bluetooth audion system. For what I understand it integrates very well with the RXs and my configuration (Navigation / ML Sound system).

You can replace the entire head unit to get Bluetooth capability too.

Default Bluetooth Car Kit - GTA Car Kits.

I just purchased the same vehicle last week (love it!). I've been looking at this kit myself, which allows use with both phone and music files. Looks easy enough to install yourself too. GTA Car Kits:
