MP3 changer for 97 es300

[shangrilada]

Hi !! I hope someone, anyone have some sort of information about mp3 players for the car.

I have a 1997 es300, would like to know what type of stereo system comes with this particular car? Is it the pioneer model?? I figure if I know what sort of stereo brand I got, I stand a good chance of going to the manufacturer and getting tips from them about a compatible mp3 cd changer.

I am familiar with the FM modulators and would not mind using one of those if I can find one that would fit nicely into the glove compartment.

Though my first option would be to get a compatible mp3 changer w/o the FM modulator...but I could get desperate and go FM if I dont find a compatible changer. If I must go the FM modulator route, does anyone know of an existing FM mod mp3 changer that would fit nicely into the glove compartment?

Thanks in advance,

Mike T.

Try www.densionusa.com -- they have a hard-drive based MP3 player that has a CD-changer interface. I have been looking into the system for my 2000 GS400, and they say that the Pioneer CD-changer should work with their system.

The unit can be trunk-mounted (see http://www.grangey.demon.co.uk/dension/ for a Lexus install in the trunk) with a "satellite" display/controller mounted conveniently where you will.

Not to bad a price either! :D

Hope that helps,

Wow Doc -

I just checked-out the Denion link that you posted. We need to rally this company to design an iPod interface for Lexus vehicles!

Agreed re: IpoD interface needed!!!!

My iTrip from Griffin flakes out too often (poor transmittal to LS430 FM antenna in windshield).
