2014-2016 Lexus IS | Wireless CarPlay Android Auto | DIY Installation

[@josephvargo1]

You guys are always adding new stuff. Way to go. Looking forward to 2015 LX compatibility.

[@BeatSonicUS]

Working on it!

[@cayden_YX]

Extremely helpful, suitable for my right hand drive Lexus too, thanks!

[@BeatSonicUS]

My pleasure!

[@kclefthanded427]

About time

[@BeatSonicUS]

Thank you for your patience!

[@MarkPollard]

I notice in some videos, you mention not bothering with the AUX connector, as the new units send everything through the factory bluetooth, but you don't mention that for the IS version. Are we ok to skip the AUX cable?

[@BeatSonicUS]

This install was done before that update. Yes you can skip the aux cable for recent kits

[@jlemontree3852]

Great video Eric, Can this product be shipped to Australia and does it have compatibility for RHD models? 2016 Lexus IS 350 F Sport w/ Nav. Identical to the model in the video just RHD. Thanks!

[@BeatSonicUS]

Yes we can ship to Australia and it’s compatible with RHD models. Please email us for a quote [e-mail] with photo of your screen and joystick controller

[@itsthatbeeguy]

Did you end up getting one. Thinking of going for one as well.

[@AmosNistrian]

Why do you need the usb extention cable? Could you just use the stock one inside the center console?

[@BeatSonicUS]

You don’t need it since it’s wireless, but it’s good to have just incase you need an additional port to charge your car or if you let someone borrow your car and they want to use carplay or android auto functions without going through the setup for wireless connection

[@disispressi2189]

Great video, I have a 2015 is250 f sport with no oem nav will this fit my car as well?

[@BeatSonicUS]

This is for your 2015 IS no nav www.beatsonicusa.com/lgvifcb3.html

[@kuwambello9205]

can I buy this if my factory head unit is currently stuck on a boot loop?how long does the shipping take ? im in Chicago IL does this come with the monitor also or will I be using the monitor that comes with the car ?

[@BeatSonicUS]

Unfortunately you'll need to fix the factory head unit first before installing our Wireless S-Connect Interface as it uses the factory radio and display unit.

[@lucifxxrog8319]

i have a 2014 lexus Is200h RHD. will this work for that, or is there an even better alternative you would suggest?

[@BeatSonicUS]

Yes this works with RHD IS as well. Please email us photo of your screen and mouse controller to confirm compatibility [e-mail]

[@kwanchan8709]

Hi do you have screen only upgrades for 2014-16 IS for larger screen, i.e. 10.3" with higher resolution ? i.e. swap the old for new screen only without the wireless Carplay etc? Thanks

[@BeatSonicUS]

Unfortunately we don’t have a screen only upgrade

[@ammarkiftaro5421]

Hi i have the circular multimedia knob and my car doesn’t have nav will this work ?

[@BeatSonicUS]

Yes! And here’s the link www.beatsonicusa.com/lgvifcb3.html

[@kuwambello9205]

is this replacing head unit or just display ?

[@BeatSonicUS]

Our Wireless S-Connect Interface works with the factory head unit.

[@KaiThomas-ks9jm]

How well does this integrate with a backup camera?

[@BeatSonicUS]

Backup camera works like factory

[@kellydye599]

I’m wanting to replace my 2014 Lexus is250 screen. It keeps rebooting will a new screen fix this issue?

[@BeatSonicUS]

It sounds like an issue with the radio. The screen swap won’t fix the issue

[@shakitaharper9223]

Question is there a unit big enough if i wanted to remove the cd player all together and just have a touch screen there?

[@BeatSonicUS]

We don’t know that such thing exists

[@RICHGLOSO]

What options do I have for a 2016 lexus is250 fsport with nav

[@BeatSonicUS]

You can use the CB2W for your vehicle. www.beatsonicusa.com/lexuscarplayandroidauto.html

[@BeatSonicUS]

@@RICHGLOSO You'll need to purchase a separate mirroring kit www.beatsonicusa.com/if04ep.html

[@Saramcmillan.]

Dose this affect the stock sound quality

[@BeatSonicUS]

You will experience the exact same audio quality as you do now as the audio now routes to the car’s Bluetooth. You also have the option to using the car usb direct connection for better audio quality

[@FernandoHernandez-sr3zp]

My oem radio stopped working, the Lexus logo and caution screens just repeats itself, will changing to Apple car play change that and make it work ?

[@BeatSonicUS]

Sorry installing carplay won’t fix that issue. You will need to fix the radio first. Check eBay for a used part

[@IC.3FIIDDY]

Just curious and want an honest answer but does the car audio lose quality? Because all the Apple CarPlay aftermarket products I’ve seen for the IS 350 people have said the audio quality tends to go down a little bit.

[@BeatSonicUS]

You won’t lose audio quality with our kit since we use lexus Bluetooth audio out. You will use the lexus Bluetooth system for audio. You can even use the lexus usb input for audio as well

[@dannyboii541]

@@BeatSonicUSbut in the video you connected the system via aux not Bluetooth

[@BeatSonicUS]

@@dannyboii541 this is an old video. Check our recent videos

[@JoseCuervo-x7o]

​@@BeatSonicUSWait WHAT? Bluetooth will always give you worse audio quality. You will lose audio quality if you use bluetooth, you need to stay wired for the best quality.

[@doge3058]

Does this head unit work with a subwoofer? Im gonna add a subwoofer to my lexus but is it compatible with your guys head unit? I dont know much about cars ​@BeatSonicUS

[@hasanmaarof3537]

Hello I need your help , my radio need to be replaced because it’s not working so is the screen dash , so can I install something like that and solve the problem?

[@BeatSonicUS]

It depends what the issue is. Mode likely you need a factory new radio

[@chaisonwilson7591]

Hey, do you have an install for wired Apple CarPlay? I have a 2014 is250

[@BeatSonicUS]

This works wired and wireless

[@bronxtaskforce01]

Will this unit allow you to play KZbin videos or videos downloaded on usb

[@BeatSonicUS]

This won’t but this will www.beatsonicusa.com/if04ep.html/

[@jakob.2is968]

bought a used lexus is and it’s missing the sd card. Will it work without the sd card?

[@BeatSonicUS]

If the audio still plays in Bluetooth and you are able to make and receive phone calls, yes it will work without the SD card

[@monglee4907]

I have a 2014 is350 f sport but my navigation and radio is on black screen on and off is this going to solve the problem

[@BeatSonicUS]

This won’t fix any preexisting issues with your car unfortunately

[@yenielabreu]

Is there an upgraded version of this now or is it the same one?

[@BeatSonicUS]

The current version are all upgraded

[@balkiratjhawar5108]

@@BeatSonicUScan we use car bluetooth sound with carplay on the newer units

[@dominicdigiulio5538]

Hello I got a problem with my stock radio head unit, it kept restarting in a loop over and over until now says “consult with a dealer”. Everything’s still stock on it, do you think this will fix that issue?

[@BeatSonicUS]

Sorry to hear that. This wont fix your issue. You need to replace your radio

[@fearthereaper42019]

Unplug your battery for 30 minutes and see if that don't fix it Lexus sent a update to all vehicles a while back what you need to do is reset to where the update is no longer there

[@MrJosephHarder]

Does this bypass the factory amp? Mine has failed so looking at options

[@BeatSonicUS]

This doesn’t bypass the factory amp unfortunately

[@alex69619]

So this won’t work with 2016 is300 without factory nav?

[@BeatSonicUS]

This won’t, but this will www.beatsonicusa.com/lgvifcb3.html

[@adib1539]

My enter center radio/console unit is dead. You guys have any replacements?

[@BeatSonicUS]

Unfortunately we don’t. You can try eBay

[@Huyvu-xv3qo]

hi guys, would this work on my 14GSF

[@BeatSonicUS]

Yes it wil!

[@Ricko1962]

I wonder if you can use this with a larger screen?

[@brentmason6782]

Jesus Christ…that wasn’t complicated at all…lol You must be a f¥€£ing engineer! I’ll stick to my factory radio. Or pay someone to do this at some point. That was way too much work for me to try and do! Thanks for demonstrating…you made it look easy…for someone as smart as you. Unfortunately that’s NOT me!!!

[@BeatSonicUS]

You can always hire someone to install it for you. Many local lexus dealers are now participating in offering our kit. Ask for the parts department
