I am a first time Lexus owner with the purchase of a 2007 GS 350. It has the Mark Levinson audio and navigation. I realize that the factory Bluetooth is phone only so I want to upgrade with a Bluetooth kit for audio. I know there are several options. I was leaning to the GTA Pure Bluetooth but was told by them that the only option is to also use their microphone for the phone. I don't want to route a new microphone and would just as soon use the factory Bluetooth for phone.
Does anyone know of an option that allows Bluetooth audio but doesn't require an additional microphone for the phone? I don't want a FM modulator or any other solution that reduces sound quality.
Thanks!

 

You can try Vaistech or Grom. I have installed Vaistech and it works great.

 

Welcome to the club JDY,

I use Kinivo for my GS. Very low cost. $35 plus tax?

The device connects to the cigarette lighter or DC power outlet for power and 1 more 3.5mm line goes into your AUX port for sound.

On my phone I set my bluetooth to connect to the car for phone, and then connect to kinivo and set it for Audio.

On my entertainment screen, I select Aux to listen to bluetooth music streaming from my phone. Quality is good imo.

If on the phone, when the connection is over, music resumes.

 

Thanks for the input. I found a similar kit to the Grom and GTA for a good price at Bestbuy and they install. Has anyone tried the Isimple ISIM7518 kit?

 

where is aux port located in car ?

 

look in your center console.
