Default Vaistech & Parrot cable question

Hi guys,

I've just picked up mij '01 LS430 UL and i'm wondering about this:

my car has a Parrot 3000 (of 3100) carkit that seems to use the Parrot cable harnas for Lexus since the stereo will mute when a call is coming in (no external speaker to be found yet).

I would love to have a Vaistech Ipod adapter put in (the SL2i) but will this become a problem since the Parrot is connected to the stereo and the Vaistech must also be plugged in somewhere with a loop-through cable?

Greetz,

Michel

Hi

I have fitted both to mine, I have the Parrot 3400, it plugs into the amp in the boot, the Vaistech plugs into the back of the radio, they both work fine together.

Default VAIS Tech - SL2xmt

Any reviews of the SL2xmt on a 2001 LS430 with navigation? It looks like using the MD emulation is the way to go but I saw some fairly mixed reviews on the product on the VAIS site. Any feedback would be appreciated - thanks.
