where to start from? (LCI Nav/Bluetooth Upgrade)

[jaehshim]

Hey guys,
so I'm finally thinking about doing an upgrade to my I-drive system.
I've driven recent I drive systems frequently, although it is perfect I know that won't be easy to swap into my 2009 LCI Nav.

My current vehicle is 2009 LCI I-drive with enhanced audio system.
It does have bluetooth but only phone calls (No audio/music stream)

With the upgrade, All I want is
1. Bluetooth Audio stream
2. Nav Map update (doesn't have to be 2017, just to a most recent one that I can run with my current hardware)

Will most likely do a search in depth, but I have no idea where to really begin with.
Is this even possible with keeping my current CIC system and just doing a software upgrade?
Thanks guys!

1. Buy Tune2Air
2. Download maps and Buy FSC Code

unless you want the high(er) resolution screen, don't go down the whole retrofit route. If you have the money to spend and want the most OEM integration, do the retrofit.

i didn't know Tune2Air had available Android....thought it was only for Ipod...damn..
but how's the sound quality through Tune2Air bluetooth?

I've been using an aftermarket Bluetooth/Aux audio plug, but sound quality isn't the best (it's a top selling ~$70 product). I was thinking an OEM bluetooth streaming would have much better sound quality
