Default 2001- hook phone up to the raido?

I got an 01 ls430 earlier this year. I was wondering if there is a kit I can install to were I can hook my phone up to the raido and play my music or lectures I listen to.

There are several options to hook up your ipod, iphone or android device or USB to play media. Wired or through bluetooth. These include Vaistech products, GROM, iSimple, Audiovox Mediabridge, Yatour etc. The first 2 are most discussed in this forum. Do a search and you will get heaps of info. There are good and bad (for example the price tag) with each. Pick the one you find suits your need. For a dirt cheap solution go for a cassette adapter for a few dollars.

I went cheap and use this one..... A bit crude but sounds nice.... The microphone for a speaker phone in the car is not that great of sound quality but does provide a "hands free" option.

Thanks guys. I will probably go with the GROM. Not bad on price and easy to install.

You could get the ION Bluetooth Casette Tape. Just insert the tape and sync up your phone and viola you have Bluetooth streaming and phone call capability. You can get that for 20.00 and no need to open anything up. The tape will turn on and off when the tape is being read. Plus, it has a mic built in that you could pull out to use for your phone call and does a great job.
