Bluetooth Streaming ADD-ON via 2008 G37S with Nav

I have a 2008 G37 Sport with Navigation and all the packages, but this model did not include Bluetooth streaming as it did in 2009+ models.

Has anyone used a certain Module or adapter to add Bluetooth streaming from phones or other devices to there 2008? I love the feature in the newer G's and all the newer cars and wanted to see if there is a good quality adapter that I can tell my Audio Installer to use to get this going.

I have seen cheaper solutions for $80-100 which Plug into your cigarette lighter and than Plug into your AUX and sync with any bluetooth phone but I think thats the cheaper way out and the quality is not as good as Stock Cars have built in.

And I did search but it seems not too many people with 2008's have done this or I just couldnt find a thread with people referring to a specific part to use?

I saw people trying to add this to other models with NON-NAVI, But my car has NAVI, Bluetooth streaming just wasnt a feature at all in 2008

Wait how would a iPhone 5 work with this, would it just act the same and no adapter needed?

Does scrolling through playlist and changing songs and name of song popping on display all work the same? I have a feeling this might not work, and will still need Scosche power adapter to give it juice? Have you tried this on a 2008 iPod cable, because it plays audio via pulling up your iPod instead of just a docking speaker system at home.

WHAT I LIKE IS THE SIZE, Elimination of the iPhone 5 Adapter, Being able to see song on screen and scroll through playlist!

I also feel like that cable is gonna break anyday and I cant even text on my phone with it due to it being so small!

The best part is, you dont have to use a charger to keep it powered, the Infiniti Port will do that, I went ahead and ordered it on Amazon $34.95 with Free Shipping!

It didn't work, only works on home docks, kinda disappointed that someone recommended it and probably never himself used it and my $35 are down the drain

Don't get me wrong, it is great that I could turn my alarm clock dock into Bluetooth but I wanted it for my car.

To the person who recommended it, have you use cablejive airdock?

Will be looking for another solution
