I have a 2004 LS 430. The car's Bluetooth system
doesn't allow telephone numbers to be manually
entered for outgoing calls when the car is moving.
The number buttons on the screen "gray out."

I note that there's a way to override the navigation
system so as to allow destination addresses to be
input while the car is in motion:



Is there a similar override/workaround/hack that will
allow telephone numbers to be punched in and an outgoing
call made while the car is moving?

Well, actually, I was hopping for a key sequence
to be used on the existing hardware, not a new
piece of gear costing hundreds of dollar. Being
able to dial while driving isn't that important
to me.

Thanks anyway, though.
