Hi, just got a 2002 LS430 with Nav and Mark Levinson audio. I’ve been looking for a Bluetooth adapter that can plug into my CD changer and that will work with the steering wheel controls. But I’m not sure which one to get and what splitter I need.

The pre-facelift models have a different radio I think so it makes it a bit complicated.

Wondering if you guys have any suggestions? Thanks!

 

You will need to pop your Radio head unit out to see the connectors on the back.
If it has the 5+7 connector or the 6+6 connector then you can use the BlueMusic module I use, along with a splitter cable.

 

Okay, sounds good thank you! But, The BlueMusic doesn’t ship to United States, unfortunately.

 

A lot of EU & UK companies are doing the same (BlueMusic are German).
It's difficult to trade with the USA when the Tariffs seem to change on a daily basis.

Maybe you can get this from Aliexpress if yours has the 5+7 connector type radio.

I believe that the splitter actually plugs into the 20 pin connector, not the 5+7.
I have not used this as my car has the 6+6 connector.
