new owner of 2001 RX300
Hey all-
Just picked up this 01' rx300. Never owned a lexus before. There are a few things that i would like to know. I can't seem to find where to insert a cd. Is cd optional for this year & model. It shows cd buttons on console. Thinking of replacing with a another deck with aux and Bluetooth capabilities along with cd player. Also i would like to install HIDs. High and low beam & fog lights. How would it work for the running lights? Or can i turn off the running lights. No manual?? Any suggestions???

I think there is a DRL-off function on the light stalk. It was put there so you could run the engine at drive-in theaters, for heat.
If you do a search, you will find one or more companies selling an adapter to add aux-in and maybe bluetooth capabilities to the stereo.

The CD-changer should be in the glove-box compartment. It uses CD-magazines. I don't recall it being an option, but a previous owner could have removed it. While you are in the glove box area, you should check out the cabin air filter. Search on how to check it out.

You have to disable the DRL's by pulling the plug for them. https://www.clublexus.com/forums/rx-...ng-lights.html

You will love the Rx! I have owned a 2001 rx300 since new and it has been trouble free since day 1. All I've had to do was replace wear and tear items. Nothing major. The CDs can be inserted from the glove box. It's on the top left corner and it takes 6 CDs. If you ever have any questions about the Rx let me know.
