Most, or all, are not spec'ed to work with 1999-2003 RX300 w/o NAV, as I recall. This doesn't count the recent product that is under development. Nobody has reported success with this type of product (on RX300 w/o NAV) over the years.

If your looking to get an ipod or aux input, take a look at the iSimple Tranzit (IS77). I recently installed that, and it works great. It charges the ipod as well. It's a FM modulator not to get mixed up with a FM transmitter. The modulator is hard-wired so there is absolutely no static, it sounds the exact same as a CD would.
If you would like pictures of how the setup looks let me know.

I bought the modulator off of ebay for about $40. I saw one up for auction and sell for $20, but I had already bought this one. So, It's a great deal. OR You can buy it at Best Buy for $139 which includes installation. I installed this myself, but for anyone that doesn't want to install it by themselves can go to Best Buy to get it installed and they only charge $50.
Tip: You don't have to remove the radio, only the wood trim. You can feel the antenna cable and pull it out of the radio, and you can insert the other one without removing the radio too. There's lot of room back there.
The hardest part was getting power to the modulator and even that was not hard at all. The installation took all of about 15 mins. lol. And it was well worth it.
I took a video of the iSimple setup so that you can see how it looks and so you can hear it. There is absolutely NO STATIC. lol. I'm excited about that. haha.

The wood trim is extremely easy, it's held in by 10 clips. Start at the top left where the hazard buttons are and work your way down. Be sure to go easy as you don't want to crack/break the wood.
I too was worried about the power so I picked up some 90 degree 3m taps and just connected them to the cigaret lighter. I'm sure somebody else here has a better description of how to tap into the wires.

Just bought an 02 RX300 with navigation. Does anyone know what is needed to get an iPod connection to work with the navigation? Most of the posts I've read are w/o navigation. I don't even know if it's different but would love anyone's help with it. Thanx!!
