I know the stereo's in the IS depend on the code on the front as to which cars they'll work in but what are the chances of a bottom loading stereo from a 2001 working in a 99? is it luck of the draw if you don't know your code or was something changed between the years hence the different codes
Cheers.

I think it can be made to work but it's not plug and play as the plugs on the back are different I believe.
Plugs are different, you may have have splice up the loom in your car.
My 2005 one went into a 99 one all the guy did was chop off the 99 plugs and attach 2005 ones. Even the sat nav worked.

Here are the wiring diagrams, for SE/Sport (i.e. with external amp) :

Minor change to early ones

When mine broke ERR3 I took it somewhere for them to source a ISO lead for it but they weren't available then I found out about the by-pass cable so I got a replacement Sony unit and by-pass cable but never went back for the OEM unit, now I want to put an OEM one back in my car if I can so wanted to know the code for that year but if there's more than one it makes more difficult:Sulk: hope that clears it up
Thanks Steve
