Default Bluetooth media player upgrade

Hi all. I purchased a '10 rx a few years back second hand but didn't realize that I couldn't play music on Bluetooth. It has no option for portable media player I've heard of. Only phone call Bluetooth.
​​​
is there any way I can get Bluetooth media working on this car?

Someone correct me if I'm wrong on this because I'm new to this car.

On my 2010 350 with nav, I have to connect to a different Bluetooth profile if I want to play music. For phone calls, it's "HANDSFREE" and for music it's "CAR MULTIMEDIA". I think I found it buried in the setup menu, under something other than Phone. I'm not sure if you can have both at the same time, which seems lame

With Nav they should both be called "Car Multimedia", it's just you have to pair the media player separately. Setup>Audio>Register I believe. Do this after you pair the phone as a phone.
