Installation of Aux Input Adapter

Model: Lexus RX MK 2, Xu30 - Years 2003-2008
Part: Accessory kit

To install the Aux input adapter to the original car radio, you must first remove the radio itself. Start by releasing the trim around the gear lever, prying along the edges and taking care not to damage it; then detach the panel housing the cigarette lighter and unscrew the four fixing screws (two on each side) of the radio to extract it from its position. At this point, disconnect the smaller central connector and bypass it with the wiring of the adapter, which should be positioned behind the radio, routing the Aux input to the most convenient location; it is recommended to check functionality before reassembling everything.
