(First let me apologize for posting in the Main forum. I forgot about this one and can't see a way to move a thread once started) Today I received a mailing from Toyota offering a "Blueconnect" bluetooth device that replaces the sunglasses holder. Seems kind of high at $503.61, including installation. Still, I have thought about such a device. Does anyone out there have any thoughts and better yet, experience with this unit? Is it worth over $500? When I looked at package 3 instead of 2 that was the only real option that interested me. So, I went with package 2. Thanks for any advice.... Bob
i think they are ripping you off. this is an aftermarket product, it will not be integrated to your display screen, and al-eds.com is having a sale right now on that for about $300. so what is done during installation to warrant them charging you $200 ? i have never seen the actual toyota bluetooth module including the steering wheel controls for sale, i wonder how much those parts run for. for $500 you can get a pretty good navigation unit with its own handsfree telephone function and be able to move it car to car
Thanks rigormortis, What a great site for all kinds of stuff. I'll have to study it. The dealer price was very high and I had a LOT of questions for the dealer. I would have hoped it would integrate completely. If not, it is VERY, VERY high. Got GPS on my phone with a pretty large display. Unless I am going on a long trip away from home, in strange territory, it never gets used. I am probably thinking too big and should remember the KISS principle. Thanks again, Bob
