2004 Gs 300


Recommended Posts


depends.....i know u said u wanna control it through the nav but are u wanting a external satellite radio display or u want it to be completely controlled through the nav like all the functions? in my 2001 i have to get a video interface to be able to hook up mine without having a external box but i can also use the interface to hook up my rear view camera, upgrade my amps, etc,etc. just havent done it yet as the cheapest interface i have found is about 300.....now i dunno if they changed anything on the your year as i think now the newer ones are built in so i dunno if yours is our not! i know mine isnt!

"i will welcome myself back to the forum as im,woo hooooooooo, finally unsuspended! hahaha!"

this is the interface i was looking at for my back up camera but i was told i could use it to also run a dvd player/my sirius/my ipod/and change my speakers........alpine also makes one but its like a 100 more than these. the bottom one is the exact same unit just cheaper off a different website.....and and i think u need to get a harness to make your steering wheel buttons still work mine was like 75 bucks.......again that was for mine and mines older so u might wanna check with your stereo shop lessu doing it!

thanks.........but that one is actually more expensive and incomplete. i still would have to buy the cables to complete it!
