Lightbulb PLEASE HELP Installing stereo - Sony MEX-GS600BT

hi all! thank you all for the helpful posts located elsewhere. i still need your help!

i am trying to install a sony mex-gs600bt in my 2004 rx330. HAS factory stereo and amp. HAS steering wheel controls. NO navigation and NO mark levinson sound system.

i would like to install the sony mex-gs600bt.

what parts do i need? i would like to do this as cheaply as possible. i think the beat-sonic kit is too expensive, right? please help! thank you!

this has been discussed at length. Look up 'Metra' kit for an alternative.

thank you for your helpful response, alchemist. i know metra and axxess parts are involved. but which? there are many, many differing opinions and back-and-forths and problems that come up. i dont want to do any splicing. and i dont want to pay a ton. thx

yes- saw that thread already, but its not exactly straightforward. and not that cheap!

i was doing some more looking around and just saw this:
http://www.beatsonicusa.com/stereo/s...sla-82aad.html

is this a new part? did not notice it before (last checked last summer probably)- anyone have experience using it? i already have the face panel from metra.

thx again
