whulu42 Posted September 13, 2007 Share Posted September 13, 2007 My mom wants to hook up a bluetooth phone in her 07 IS 250. Could go through the speakers or got through additional speakers. She found a Lexus recommended installer that wants to put in a Peiker/Alac BT only product-no nav or mp3 just the phone into speakers, available only wholesale and installed for 750$, which sounds like a rip off. She is not interested in the Peiker/Alac "Bluetouch" mp3/phone option. She is also not interested in Garmin or the like. Any suggestions?

Any suggestions? if all she wants is to be able to talk handsfree using bluetooth, then she can consider the Motorola or SonyEricsson car kits. SonyEricsson: go to their website and search for HCB-400. Motorola: search for IHF1000. They are not cheap, but still cheaper than $750 quoted for the Peiker/Alac.

The NY times had an article a few weeks ago about these systems (on 9/2); if you have an on line subscription (I do not), here's a link: http://select.nytimes.com/gst/abstract.htm...DA00894DF404482 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
