I plan to install a Motorola IHF-1000 in my 2008 Lexus IS without factory nav. I'd like to automatically mute radio during cell calls. The factory radio has a mute button on the dash. I would also like calls routed to car speakers if this can be easily done. To my knowledge there is no plug and play harness available. Thanks.

It comes as a part of nav and costs at least $2,500. At the same time, it sucks so bad, it is good they do not shove it down people's throats every chance they have.

I guess I didn't make it clear in my original post. Can anyone offer advice on the hook-up? Especially, can the mute wire form the BT simply be attached to the mute wire in the radio harness? Thanks to all who responded.

Probably easier to just add an external speaker to the hands free kit and use a relay to interrupt the amp turn on wire.

BTW, on parrot when using a relay you must put a doide across the relay coil or it will get feedback and keep the relay energized, or you can allways use your rear speakers input, output to upen up the amp trigger wire.
