Hello!
None of the add-ons in subject are available through Scion.com -- but some dealers offer to install them, some even claiming to be using Toyota's electronics (apparently -- those intended for other models).
Can someone, please, comment on this procedure(s) and on the possible devices?
I wish them to be as simple to use as possible -- the main drivers will be senior, who, if the device is too complicated, will simply not use it at all.
In particular, they should all be well integrated with the rest of the car, Bluetooth should require nothing more but the initial setup so that the phone(s) connect to the speakers and the in-car microphone upon the person's entering the car.
As far as remote-starting -- if the dealer can't install it, do I want Scion's security/alarm, or will it interfere with the "after-market" installer of the remote-starter?
I'm talking about Scion xA -- chosen by the primary drivers for its small size (parking space is at a premium, where they drive).
Thanks a lot for any suggestions!
