2006. Install was easy, remove side vents, unscrew radio, install harness, decide where to mount BT45, confirm it works, put it all back together. I didn't install the USB, 3.5 jack or mic. I did remove my cigarette lighter and wired in a rapid charging dual USB port though. I honestly spent more time deciding where I wanted to mount the BT45 then anything else lol.What year 100 series?

Yea, the double din swap sounds nice, but since many of us have the integrated climate controls, I don't think this is possible. I too am now looking at the USA Spec BT45-TOY. It's unfortunate there are not better aftermarket options available.
I had integrated climate control. Definitely isn't plug n play, but easy enough.
Bought 99 bezel off ebay, double din unit, and some wire connectors and went to town. The post above on nav delete walks through everything easily. 4-5hr job.
Cassette tape adapter and a Bluetooth gadget will run you about $30 altogether and you can make and receive calls via Bluetooth through all your speakers and listen to music too.
So when you say you had integrated climate control, you mean you had it fully integrated into the NAV system? Did you buy a double din AND the separate climate control knobs?
Sound quality is not good in my experience.

Which adapter did you buy and did you have to modify it to keep it from ejecting? What year is your LC? I bought an adapter and it keeps getting ejected immediately. I've tried taking out one of the gears like a bunch of YouTube videos instructed but no luck. Thanks.Cassette tape adapter and a Bluetooth gadget will run you about $30 altogether and you can make and receive calls via Bluetooth through all your speakers and listen to music too.

Had a shop try to install the BT45-TOY w/ CAS-LEX harness into a 2003 LX470 with Mark Levinson/nav...wouldn't work. They said the audio mode buttons (AM/FM/tape/DVD) would freeze up. This shop had previously installed a BT45-TOY into my '05 LS430 with no issues, but the levinson in that car has a AM-SAT button. I'll try to contact USA SPEC to see if there's any "trick" to getting it to work w/ the '01-03 Levinson units.Just installed the BT45-TOY last weekend, went very smooth and am happy to be able to stream from my phone again.
Old thread, sorry, but any luck here?USA SPEC to see if there's any "trick" to getting it to work w/ the '01-03 Levinson units
