i disconnected all the stock stereo stuff and started over. The mp3 player has dvd / tv controls / changer controls all that stuff in it. I just put a kicker impulse amp on the mids and highs and a LUNAR amp on some HE2 12's with a 3 farad cap to keep the car running ![Smilie](https://www.clublexus.com/forums/images/smilies/smile.gif)
o ya a side note, this is strange but true. the reason i have the huge caocitor is because when both the amps (mainly the LUNAR) were kickin at really high volume and the car was at an idle the a/c would kick off sometimes. dealer could never figure it out then we realized the amps were drawing so much power the car was shutting down the a/c to recoup for a bit. installed the 3 farad capicitor hasnt happened since!

o and the head unit has a remote so i dont need to adjust anything on the unit itself much. when in park i cant fold the face down to load cd's i have to shift to another gear reverse or further, but i really never want to change cd's when i am in park anyway and with like 150 - 200 songs per disk i dont really change cd's much at all! lol

hello all, its been a while! i have since bought a 05 tacoma prerunner TRD sport ed. so i don't spend much time with lexus stuff. i did take out all of my A/V equipment to put in the tacoma including the in dash clarion MP3 head unit. i had to buy a new center piece to put the stock radio back in, so if anyone is trying to put an in-dash aftermarket head unit in there RX and would like the pre-modded center piece i had in mine (in all the pics) just shoot me any email or pm and you can have just cover the shipping.
if someone can use it, i am always wiling to support a new project so just let me know1
happy trails to all
