RX330 / Bluetooth /NAV - What are my options
It would appear that the RX330 (2003 / 2004) models did not have Bluetooth as part of the whole NAV package. I am planning to buy an RX330 of this year and would like to know if this was an option available or whether it wasn't. Additionally I would also like to know if there is a way to get the existing NAV unit to allow for the bluetooth interface / telephone book? Is it something that's built into the unit (i.e. 2005)? Is it just a receiver that can be plugged in? Will it require an update to the headunit? Can the 2005 screen be fitted to the 2003/2004?
Thanks for any replies.

2004 RX330 does not come with Bluetooth.
The easiest way to add this is to buy an aftermarket add on. There are tones on Ebay and at your local stores. However they will never look like the factory ones.
To fully change to a factory setup of buletooth (the Nav and the steering wheel setup) you are looking at BIG $$$$ and also lots of labor cost if you can not install it yourself.
If you really want the factory look then you better just buy a 2005 and later. This way you get to save money and get a better car.
