Hey guys,
I had a old camry and had upgraded the decks with a Android and Apple car play system . I have now changed to a lexus (still old but new enough that the systems are all integrated into the display), I cant really change the deck i think because of what i mentioned, its like an all in one. So I figured only way to use my phone is to get a mount, But catch is the Pixel 3XL has no 3.5mm output, only a USB-C. So I need to use that to convert into 3.5mm to connect with the car system.
I figured ideally if i can get a wireless phone mount then it solves my problems of wanting to use my phone navigation / messaging etc while i am driving as well as the audio out from the phone to my car. Do people have recommendations on wireless phone mounts (I dont want one that connects to the air vents but rather to the windscreen or sits on top of the Dashboard. I have a ebay plau $49 voucher to use as well so i figured maybe i can use that to purchase the item.
This will charge your phone wirelessly and sticks to the window allowing you to use Android Auto directly from your phone. https://www.kmart.com.au/product/15w-wireless-car-window-mou…
I have two of the vent version and they both work great.
Lexus has had Bluetooth since 2003, otherwise I guess you'll still need a USB-C to 3.5mm adapter.
Alternatively, there's a good chance you can install a double din unit with a new fascia plate, something like these https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/192411308658 / https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/293498992556 Any car audio installer should be familiar with the process.
