I have a 99 with the OEM unit (non nav) and i am wondering the same thing.
Thanks
Thanks
not sure on the newer model, but i know if my 2000 LX didnt play MP3 cds...you sure as heck cant
For anyone with 98-02 I recommend aftermarket setups...they look stock when done correctly.
I have an 2001 LX with Factory NAV and it plays home made mp3 cd's with no problem.

Yeah, i am really contemplating this, but the Crutchfield folks say it cant be hooked up easily! Hmmm I am an electrical retard, so i will wait for someone else to try it first!
that is horrendous. ill pm you when I get home some pix of my setup...I think you may enjoy it more.
o and crutchfield just said that becausethere isn't a plug and play harness avaliable for our cars so you have to splice the factory wiring. not a big deal since you woul never want to put the oem stuff back in
zack, the mp3 cds you made wouldn't happen to have DRMs would that? IE:songs bought from itunes. mp3 cds made from itunes downloads will not play in any mp3 capable cd players
Cool, lemme know, but just an FYI, the MOST IMPORTANT thing to me about a head unit is the iPod functionality!
I dont need/want Nav, or anything fancy smancy stuff, just access to the tunes!
It appears that there is now:

Could it be the software I'm using? or I have the dvd changer, not the single in dash unit?
I will make another and try again? Also I wouuld like to add a pair of alpine 7 monitors for headrests?
Thanks for all the help guys!

meh....i just looked it up...didnt apply to my truck,
It COULD be the software your using...that is a slight possibility. Check your programs "burning" options in the preferences screen. Your sure that it WILL play MP3s correct? I have no experience with the toyota/lexus oem radios with MP3 CDs except for in the FJCruiser.
I have a 2006 and mp3 cds play just fine. All of mine were downloaded from itunes, too.
When I bought my '06 LC used in December, I tried an MP3 but the player wouldn't recognize it. I have the usual factory nav system with the console changer. The system will play DVDs, which I think requires it to be able to decode MP3 audio. However, I found no indication in any of the manuals that it will play MP3s. After seeing this thread, I tried another MP3 disc (a commercial, published MP3 disc, not one I burned.) It was also not recognized.
Is it possible that in the USA MP3 capability was enabled for the LX but disabled for the LC?

remember that CD-RW's usually do not work in factory systems. try CD-R's. the laser technology is slightly different between the 2.
I have the center console DVD changer. I will have to check the software, but I know it just came straight from the itunes site. I am using CD-R discs.
