Hello, most of the latest audio cd decks have an ipod port build in. You can do more research to see what you like and what best fits you here. Just an example of a cd deck that has that feature.

*Compatible with iPod, iPod mini or iPod photo with dock connector. KCA-420i Adapter (not included) required; requires iPod software, 2.2 or higher or iPod mini software, 1.1 or higher, available at Apple.com Note: Not compatible with iPod shuffle,

You will need that adapter most likely if you choose to use your old cd audio deck for your car. Lexus audio system is usually Lexus factory made, so I think your going to have to look into your lexus dealer to see if they can give you a special port for the ipod. What I did was I removed the front audio cd/tape system, rewired the front dashboard and put on a brand new cd deck.

The sound is crystal clear by the way, and its the best way to listen to your music. Just think about never burning another cd. EVER. :D

Good Luck

The tape deck thingy is probably the best thing if you must stay under $60. The sound quality will suffer.

If you want good audio quality AND want to keep the original radio, try this site. I Have not yet installed one, but plan to and will post my opinion when complete.

Ever wonder why the ipod mini was about the size of a cassette? Stick it in your cassette deck and find out! That's what I call creative engineering.

One of my friends has this FM transmitter in his car. I was very impressed with the sound quality for a FM mod.!
