This one also states for 2004 and above, I think they are referring to the RX330 and newer. Either way if you plan on purchasing either of the one's you linked to, I would contact the seller first to make sure it will work.

One thing that annoys me about ebay is they state every RX part to fit all when they do not. I have a CD player but the controls on the steering wheel haven't worked i am not sure how much my car is original there are a few modifications that I have found that i thought were stock on my car which aren't. My speakers have JBL logos that appear to be factory too which i haven't seen on others.
My sub woofer is missing as i do not have one under the seat but system sounds good will add a dual voice coil sub i have over time and try and be happy.

In my rear headrests are DVD LCDs which are broadcasted via fm modulator. I can play a DVD or mp3 on cd or use tape converter with mp3 the idea of CD stack delete is fine with me as long as i can function with the steering wheel controls. Is steering wheel controls stock on a rx?

My other idea for entertainment is add a WDTV and use a flash drive with it add a front screen so i can navigate it with a remote and play music or videos broadcast through my fm modulatorfor sound and again be happy with that.

Found a rx300 that I am going to look at today or tommorow luckily it has stock nav. Its a 2001 with 122000 miles. Hopefully everything will go well when I go look at it and I won't have to worry about changing the radio... Fingers crossed...

Does anyone have radio controls on their steering wheel? It may help me figure out whether they should work or whether i should buy a new rx radio since mine is Japanese and only has half the fm band.
