Installation of Bluetooth. . .

. . . on the 2009 370z.

Even though it doesn't come standard with the 370z, can you add it through a 3rd party or even through Nissan itself?

It is standard on the Touring package, also with the nav—both are the models with the Bose.

But I just want Bluetooth capabilities, Nav systems are useless imo, and I don't want to pay an extra ~2k just for Bluetooth.

The touring model with the Bose and no nav has Bluetooth.

You can easily add an outboard, standalone Blue tooth unit. Parrot is probably one of the best and can be purchased with a custom harness for the base radio here: Parrot Bluetooth Hands Free Car Kits and Plug N' Play Harness Adapters - Home

The correct harness is the NIS-1 (just confirmed by them). You can package the harness and several of the parrot units from about $120 and up...

I think I'm going to go in this direction..

I just emailed them and that was the response from their tech guy..You can pair that harness with any kit apparently..

Alot of portable GPS units include bluetooth in them and work quite well. I used my Garmin Nuvi 670 like that and was pleased with it as an alternative to a much more expensive factory installed option or wiring something else up. The GPS also allowed me to move it from car to car, which kept me from having to pair my phone more than once.

If you want to go portable and don't want to have your GPS up all the time, the Motorola T-505 isn't bad. Bout $56 on Amazon. I used mine this weekend..Works fine and can also stream through your radio if so inclined..

THE PARROTS ARE GOOD. my dad decided to put it on all the cars, the ones in the video that Modshack posted are ugly, there are sum that are mor simple. my brother has 1 wiht he small screen, u can see whos calling u but its too big. i say, for those who r going to get a parrot.. they work realyl well. i like the small 1 without the screen. i jus clip my phone to my seatbelt(i have a phone clip) and wen it rings i jus look down, see my ph0ne, and push the answer button on the small device thats mounted around the dash or anywhere where u can see it, and theres a small mic that u can put on the ceiling next to the rear mirror.
(if some of u dont know, the persons voice comes from the speaker of the car) and u need to professioally install it. if u know how, then go ahead. damn i wrote alot...lol
