I too am on the same boat i cant seem to get the radio to play sound plase let me know how u get sound from factory amp

OK, What a mess. Have a standard "Premium" audio system - no ML or Nav. Have a Panasonic Sirius radio from my last vehicle (touch screen turns black and plain when off - nice security) and used it with the AUX IN for my iPod. Worked really well. Was quoted $600 to get Sirius installed by the dealer which would still leave me without a hard wired iPod. Figured I would just do like I did in my last 2 vehicles. Remove the factory HU, install with a Metra harness my own reciever, enjoy till I sell the vehicle and then reinstall the original factory HU. Done this many times in the past. Audis, Chryslers, Acuras - no problems. What's with Lexus. What an inconsiderate mess. No Metra harness listed. No DIN install panels. Reading everything I can on the Forum just makes it worse. Chopping into the factory wiring harness to install relays with a hidden switch - come on - get real. No wiring harness info - spend more money on All-Data to get even more mixed up. Not going to spend $300 for a special converter which lets me use the ridiculous small display on the factory HU to see cyphered portions of whats on my iPod screen. HEY, LEXUS, JUST PUT AN AUX IN PLUG ON THE RADIO. Tried the Metra 70-8113 Toyota harness and the radio works but no sound through the factory amp and speakers. Yes, the blue wires are connected. I have run out of ideas except taking it to an aftermarket install company and begging for help with this. Bought on ebay the really nice and expensive $100 "04-06 LEXUS RX330 RADIO ADAPTOR GPS NAV SATELLITE" bottom replacement panel in order to mount my DIN HU in the car. Took 3 hours of playing around, drilling, snipping and trial & error in order to get this to work. Not set up for a DIN radio slide-in and bolt -in install. Need to drill some new mounting holes and snip off most of the internal bracing on the black cover piece. Size of recessed panel which looks like a "pop out" is not the right size and not a "pop out". Be forewarned - cut carefully, plan ahead. Looks great but what a job - not for the timid. Not intersted in a complete Uber sound system replacement. Just want to hook up an after market radio HU which does what I want and have it play through the factory amp and speakers. Don't think that is too much to expect.

1. Metra 70-8113 harness appears to work. Radio works. All wires hooked up as instructed, RCA's hooked up per instructions and triple checked.

2. No sound at all. Blue/white wire is hooked up.

3. Anyone got an easy solution.

i bought my 400h without navi and now wanna get one put in does anyone kno if its plug in play or theres more to it
