IPOD function 08 GX
Picking up my 08 Blizzard pearl GX in the morning with 3 miles
Now my question is the AUX port in the front center console up by the seat heaters? Im told you can plug into that from the ipod?
Then Im looking on the Lexus website and they have an IPOD interface kit? Im thinking Im going to need the lexus interface kit to use all the controls on the steering wheel and display IPOD info on the NAV screen??? Help me out

OK, i plugged my iPod into the aux port in our '08 GX and it works fine. I bought a plug (check eBay or RadioShack I'm sure). When I hit "CD/aux," the nav screeen said "aux was in play mode" or something similar. Steering wheel controls don't control the iPod, but then you already know that. The only odd thing is that the volume is quite a bit lower from my iPod than from any other source (XN, FM, CD changer, etc).

Making the iPod interface standard equipment would be sweet! Lexus could have done it, but their web info makes me think "no change from '08."

Did you go into the iPod menu and turn up the volumne?

"itsZep - You have the iPod interface, right? You didn't
plug your iPod into the AUX plug on the center dash next
to the seat heater controls, right?"
Sorry guys I guess I didn't really know exactly what I had since
I just got the '09 vehicle. I just went and took these pics and the
dealer did install the Vais IPOD unit. I plug my IPOD into a
connector in my glove box. So thats why my steering wheel controls work?
