Good job, looks great - I've got the same system on my 2001 RX.
I'm getting the vaistech ipod adapter after christmas which is supposed to add a 'virtual' minidisc source to the stereo and shows you all the track title etc on MP3's.

sorry to inform you but i dont think the rx300 screen will support the vaistech ipod screen view of discs and titles. as far as i know the rx300 screen which was engineered in 1999 did not have all the functions such as mini disc address which can be emulated by the vaistech adapter. i think all it can do is support your ipod playing through the factory stereo system which can be acheived by less expensive products then vaistech ipod unit.
Someone has done a similar thing with a UK 2001 GS430 here.
But we will see, I'll let you know - either way its better than having a 6 disc changer!

Yep this thread talks about how I did the conversion. The steps that were provided were very easy. Soo easy that you can't mess up. TunedRX300 just got his unit shipped to him so he should be installing his very shortly.

^^ Start from page one, you will see that there are 3 wire taps to be tapped in. The wire harness comes ready to be plug and play. All the work will be done by Lexusaudio so you really don't have to do much but to plug it in.

YoshRX300, did the NAV come with the latest OEM DVD software? I'm still running 2001 DVD NAV software in my 2002. How can you tell which generation computer you have as well?
Also, did you ever install the backup camera? Are you going to?
Thanks
