Phargraves2 Posted April 27, 2010 Share Posted April 27, 2010 Hi!! Im looking at a 2004 LS. Can the dealer install Bluetooth on a 2004 LS? Sincerely, Paul Hargraves Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1990LS400 Posted April 27, 2010 Share Posted April 27, 2010 Bluetooth was standard on the 2004 LS430 with navigation. If the 2004 LS430 you buy does not have navigation, there are a variety of aftermarket Bluetooth phone kits that can be installed. Some aftermarket Bluetooth kits seem to work even better than the early Lexus Bluetooth (2004 was the first model year Bluetooth was available on the LS430). I don't know if any Lexus dealers install aftermarket Bluetooth kits but they aren't all that difficult to install and you might be able to find a shop to do it for you if you don't want to do it yourself.

Guru, Thanks for the timely reply. Just to clarify. Are you saying Bluetooth was STANDARD on all 2004 LS? If not do the aftermarket Bluetooth Kits work like the factory installed, by muting the stereo when a call comes in? Thank you in advance.

RDM Posted April 27, 2010 Share Posted April 27, 2010 Guru, Thanks for the timely reply. Just to clarify. Are you saying Bluetooth was STANDARD on all 2004 LS? As he said, WITH navigation. So if yours does not have navigation, no. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you were not to buy a 2004 with navigation and Bluetooth, yes, aftermarket Bluetooth phone kits can be installed to automatically mute the audio system when a call is received or dialed.
