[@yfrom3000]

Hey John great video! Thanks for the in depth walk-through on the wiring going to attempt this DIY myself. One question can you explain the reverse camera a bit more how are you powering it, rear wiring, etc?

[@yfrom3000]

Also which camera did you end up using and how is it receiving power? Is it always on or only when in reverse?

[@notyourbusiness1352]

Where are the front and rear defroster buttons? I think they are important.

[@SasekPL]

I have a question about the heated mirrors and wipers. After installing this radio, do I lose access to it? I can't see the physical buttons on the device, are they in the app?

Hey I’ve installed it and I’m having so problems. First one is my audio cuts out like I’ll be listing to music then it’ll stop playing then comeback on. Second my VSC and ABS lights are on. Third my hazard lights don’t work and when I lock/unlock my air the blinkers don’t go off.

Any latest update on this head unit? specifically looking for reviews on: 1) Lag, is it lagging after a year? 2) How is the audio sound? I saw reviews of other brands where the audio was subpar compared to the factory head unit. 3) Is it compatible with Android Auto and/or Carplay?

There is a more OEM looking android radio for this car. Did you see that one before deciding on this one?

I haven't tried their headunits. Please let me know how it goes if you do get it installed !

@@JohnNguyenVincent sounds good, I'll be sure to let you know if I try it.

[@justiinr]

I have a 2010 Lexus IS250 with the navigation screen but the set up is slightly different from yours, would the Andriod headunit still work? 2:13 2:13

[@GatorWinup]

The online sellers actually have a picture showing that your navigation model would not fit this specific unit. I do not know if they make another version to replace the navigation version.

[@johnnysvids]

Wiring looks pretty intimidating...

[@JohnNguyenVincent]

Honestly, even though it was plug and play there the wiring alone probably weight a couple of pounds. It would of been a nightmare if you had to splice anything.

Whats the difference between the 2gb ram version and 3? Is it worth the extra ram?

[@jessieaguayo8448]

I read on some Amazon reviews that the 2gb ram version takes 30 seconds to boot up I believe is what they said while the 3gb is instantaneous, idk how true that 2gb ram version review may be though

[@mauricesuber833]

Do you have any problems with the climate control not working?

[@JohnNguyenVincent]

Yeah once, we unplugged it. Put the stock headunit on. Turn it on. Then put the aftermarket one back on and it works fine now

[@Rrm-br5ku]

No defrost???

[@JohnNguyenVincent]

yeah, i noticed it loses some stuff

[@dongoggine]

Is that headunit the same make as xtron, it looks exactly the same.... Just wondering.

[@JohnNguyenVincent]

the internals are different from brands

[@aerianahanif937]

Just curious, how well do you think the compatibility would be with my 2008 ISF? I have the same Navigation system as you but was looking to upgrade. How was the sound quality in conjunction with the Mark Levinson system? Also, which retailer did you buy the radio from? I saw you dropped a few different links.

[@rtromp2005]

I do have the same question. I really don't want to lose the Mark Levinson sound. Can you still make use of it? as far as i know Mark levinson handles 14 speakers. how about this?

3rd ask for this. 2008 ISF being bought and screen is first thing I’d want to replace
