Recommendation For Ipod/usb/sd Interface Ls430

[ScottC]

Hi

Can anyone recommend a good ipod/usb/sd card interface for a 2005 LS430 please?

Main requirement is that it integrates properly with the car . All the steering wheel controls work and the tracks/folders etc are listed on the dashboard display.

Cheers

Scott

Hi Tarun

Thanks for finding these but it isn't a dab radio that I am looking for, just a means of playing MP3 files from an ipod or a memory card/stick.

There are some products out there, I just wanted a recommendation from someone who has already done this.

Cheers

I'm also looking for the same and have come across each of these:

I've been doing some searching and found some decent reviews of the Grom Audio kit. On the Grom Audio website it seems to cover the LS430 but on amazon it doesn't have it listed. If anyone has feedback on either of these that would be appreciated!

I fitted a vaistech to my gs450h.

The setup is much the same in the ls.

Simple plug and play setup, no wire cutting. Only work is removing a few trim panels and stereo to get to the plug at the back.

You can plug in your Iphone or use a usb stick.

Everything is controlled through your normal car media controls, eg steering wheel as you would the cd.

Sound quality is excellent and as yet not had any problems.

I posted a few pics and details in the Gs threads.

Hi all I'm look for an interface between my Iphone 6 and my 2008 LS600h. It must be able to charge the Iphone and also allow the downloaded songs on my Iphone to be accessed (simulating an AUX) Does anyone know if the wiring loom for the Mark Levinson Stereo/ Sat Nav is the exact same as the U.S. Version ?? I'd hate to buy an interface from the States only to find out it won't work.

Any suggestions gratefully appreciated.

I think mr2lad's post confirms it is the same? Vais units are very good, just expensive.

Vais for me also. Great product, with full Lexus interface..........
