As you demonstrated, with the wings folded, and the main center lamp shut off, it provides indirect light by shining light on the ceiling. I think that's a nice feature. The clamp didn't seem positioned all the way flush to the desk in back. Was there something under the edge of the desk blocking it?

Man, you have a sharp eye! Yes, I have an obstruction under there that prevents me from making it flush

Many new cars no longer have cigarette lighters, but most older cars do. I usually just tap into those wires. They also make ports that can be swapped out in place if you just want to take out the old lighter and put repurpose the space without making new holes. I've done that on a couple older vehicles.

hey i got the camera to work, but i have to go to the HD2 Streaming App on Android Auto to get it to work. how do i get it to automatically show up when i put it into reverse when i’m on carplay? (i have it hooked to the reverse light but it only shows it losing signal in the app once i take it out of reverse)
@GearGadgetExperiments7 күн бұрын
Sorry I don't have Android auto, so I am not sure what you are referring to. But I did not need to do anything special for the back up camera. The backup wire senses when the car is in reverse and switches to the camera feed regardless of whether I am in carplay or radio mode. Are you sure the reverse light is hooked to the right line one the unit? I forgot what the line was labeled on the unit itself.

Nice review. It's a great car. Had the NX 450h+ Takumi with ML sound for 4 months, 3,500 miles (preferred to F Sport). Getting 53 miles EV in town and 44 on the motorway (at approx 65 mph). Charges in 2.5 hrs on the UK's 240v, 30A supply. EV alone is powerful and picks up like an EV instead of BMW's X3 30e where the electric motor goes through the gearbox. It's worth understanding how the car operates the eCVT by controlling the revs for maximum efficiency. Once you have that, it's easy to ignore the 'rubberbanding drone' which is very quiet on the Takumi. It's more like a turbine coming on and there's very little noise or vibration when the ICE kicks in. Ride quality is first class. The tech is very good. Only little niggles - wireless charging doesn't work well and brakes make a small clunk when coming to a complete stop and just as you start. And a 10 year warranty if you keep it serviced with Lexus! Outstanding.

No. 1: Don't use a power drill for screws into flimsy plastic. No. 2: Without the proper circuitry to drop the voltage (despite what the ad may state) you may be pushing 12 volts into your phone that can only accept 5v. Will it charge fast, likely so with lots of heat and at worst, fry your phone. Beware just because it looks correct, doesn't mean it presents the proper amperage and voltage. No. 3: Secure the wires better. No. 4: If you smell something hot-burning you know where to look. No. 5: Better to install much higher quality ports to safe guard your devices. No. 6: Alternative is to install 12v cigar female port and purchase a high quality name brand adapter to USB for proper charging characteristics. Don't ruin a high priced phone or other device because there was a cheap solution that looks good.

Don't want to be that guy but that was a crappy installation. at least with the wiring. The cabling just hanging there in front of that small 5" sub will vibrate against the outer suspension ring and will rub into the speaker and damage it. I would advise to at least wire the cabling though a place that can be secured down

However, I went out and looked in mine earlier and noticed that the battery is not under the back seat it's under the hood so this installation won't even work.
