Default iPod and 2002 SC430

Has anyone installed an iSimple Tranzit on a 430?
My brother installed one a corvette and loves it.
Clear sound since it is an FM modulator and not an FM transmiter...no interferance since, as I undertand it, when the Tranzit is activated it replaces the radio rather than transmitting over a set frequency.
I see where someone put one on an RX300 but do not know if radios are similar.
Thanks

I just installed a unit on my 2009 RX350. The controls appear on the navigation screen and you control the ipod with the touch screen instead of trying to put on glasses and mess with the small ipod screen. I love it.
I don't think it is an iSimple Tranzit but it works great. Installed by Bluetooth Valet, San Diego, CA. Came to my house and did the entire job in my driveway. I highly recommend them.

the 02 wont interface with these I dont think, the 09 rx350 is running on gen 5 or 6 nav your 02 is running on Gen 2/3 nav. You can use the Vaistech SLU it will give you 2 aux ports (RCA style) and youll be able to select it via your stock head unit.

nope, you gotta use the Vaistech SLU I have mine connected in conjunction with the navtool so I could have the sound and ipod screen pop up for video if I wanted but Instead I have a back up camera, a WD Media Player, and my ipod only hooked up to sound. If you do a search i think i uploaded a pic of my set up a while back. I think 05 or 06 + had the factory sat radio which is what is allowing people to use things like isimple and the Vaistech units which allow on screen displays and perhaps steering wheel controls.

did you have to get a special cable to make it work with your sc? Or is it just plug and play?

Default Parrott MKi9100

I had to get the plug and play cable separately. It was $100 on ebay. Trying to use the harness that comes with the kit would be a nightmare. I also got the Parrott on ebay.
