I just purchased a 2001 RX300. The stereo does not appear to be "satellite ready," but I have a Pioneer SIR-PNR1 from my previous car. I'd like to purchase a satellite ready RX300 stereo for my 2001. Is this even possible? Will a 2005 stereo fit in a 2001? Is there another solution (aftermarket)?
Thanks!
Thanks!

No, it's not the GPS system, so there is no Satellite button. So my problem is that even if I can hook up a satellite receiver, then I have no way to select it from the head unit.

Has anyone tried the aftermarket Single Din adapter? I'm thinking about installing a single din aftermarket GPS/sat head unit using the adapter seen here: http://beatsonicusa.com/stereo/stere...00/aok-01.html. However, I'm concerned that the screen from a single din stereo would not be able to eject as the gear shift stick is in the way.

There is somebody on this forum who took the time and effort to figure out how to upgrade a non-NAV RX300 to NAV. He then sold wiring harness kits with detailed instructions, and did some installations. Perhaps you will consider such a business model if things go well.
