    My state recently restricted handheld phone usage... so, time to figure out bluetooth! I have a Samsung Galaxy S8 and apparently it isn't backwards compatible with the bluetooth version in a 2008 Prius so I need to purchase some kind of accessory to make this work. Amazon is full of them! I'm looking for recommendations on what will work well with the Prius, which does not have an easily accessible AUX port (it's in the console). Ideas? Thank you very much in advance!

    Have you actually tried to pair your phone to the car's bluetooth? I believe it works for phone calls, just not for streaming music.
