Upgrade Stereo?
 
I recently got rid of my Camry Hybrid in favor of a base model 2009 Prius. I love everything about the switch, except for the stereo. I really miss the audio in that my Camry had that I used to hook up my iPhone. Do I have any options other than buying a whole new car? Getting an audio in would be great, but if I could get stereo bluetooth support, that would be even cooler. Thanks for any help!

You may have an aux input, depending on your package...
In my 2009, I have one. To find out, open the center console and look inside toward the front. If you see a cigarette socket at the bottom left, then look to the right of it. There should be an AUX plug that looks like an earphone jack.
I used that input for my XM radio until I installed a chinese double-din radio with navigation, MP3/4, DVD, Bluetooth, etc. Now everyone in our area (population: 300, Prius population: 75) envies mine. 3D nav beats factory!
Will post pics, how to and what is needed if requested.
