Default Android Headunit for 2008 IS250 ?

What do you guys recommend for a head unit upgrade for a 2008? It lacks Bluetooth Audio which is the primary function but I would love to watch Youtube Videos as well so I'm looking for an android radio. The audio shops tell me I need a wire harness adapter that is between $50 and $600 depending on what I need. That seems really high. I was looking at Phoenix tablet headunit that looks to be plug and play but I don't trust them. They claim to be in the US but they ship from China and they told me it would take 4 weeks for delivery. I love Chinese culture but I don't trust Chinese electronics.

I have the navigation system on my vehicle so I have the full screen set up.

Thank you in advance for your recommendations.

PS is there any solution that retains the steering wheel controls?

I just picked up a 09 IS250 with Navigation and all that, but I noticed that the Bluetooth only works for phone calls.

I went to amazon and picked up this wireless receiver and I installed it today. It works great and I strongly recommend it!
