I bought the MP3_My_Car thing and installed in my RX from a local auto repair shop in San Jose, CA. The deal was cheaper than I expected. It is very cool and ez to have control IPod through ML system and also through audio buttons on the steering wheel. The shop actually gave me a $30 store coupon for their repair service and parts.

Now, I just ordered another set for my wife's 2IS350, because she is tired of taking IPod in-and-out to have it charged. It's scheduled to be installed next week. I am sure my wife will like it.

I will post pictures when I get it done.
Hope it supports text display on ML system in the 2IS!

I've been waiting for confirmation of this on an IS. I can't wait to see the pictures.

there is already confirmation on this, someone over at .net did this already.

I never knew that other place existed. I definitely want my iPod integrated like that but the thought of taking my brand new IS apart like that gives me pause...on the other hand, would I trust some other guy who's never done it before? NO WAY!

Same feeling here! But the shop worked on my RX, they have been worked on quite a few Lexus and other vehicles already, and they sell the modules also. That is why I let me work on my wife's 2IS again. I will ask them to mod the DVD/Navi also, and I am sure they like the labor charge but hold no liability for somthing like that.

I can let you know about the store if you are around San Jose, CA... if you need it. I guess you just need to find an experienced store only. Good luck on that!

I'm in CT but thanks for the offer. I've taken things apart before, I'll just study up and take my time.
