⚠️ PSA! ⚠️
If you are using Bluetooth for your audio connection (which I recommend for best audio quality), make sure you turn on the “Use Bluetooth Car Channel” setting. This will make sure your Siri and map voice still work as they should AND that your phone will connect to Bluetooth audio every time. You won’t have to constantly switch back to Bluetooth audio from CarPlay audio. 🙂
(Thank you to Brandon for finding this out)
Staying up all night watching your vids, picking up my IS tomorrow literally cant wait
I love this! Congratulations. Enjoy meeting her for the first time 🙂. Take lots of pics!!
omg yesss i’ve been waiting for this video! this mod is a must if you got the 3is 🙌
Yay! I completely agree. I love it.
You making these videos make me so confident when i take my car apart, ty for the guides.
Thank you! I’m happy I could boost your confidence in these installs 🙂.
@Grey 3IS......thank you for this great video! You make it look soooo easy bro! haha
Thank you for your support! Hopefully it makes the install for you just as easy as I made it seem 😁.
Great vid. Looks like a solid solution.
🔥🔥🔥banger install + video, thanks!
Thank you!
That’s clean 🧼
Installed the same mod on my 2016 M4 was worth it. It was very slow before but many of the recent firmware upgrades have made it operate much smoother and faster.
That’s awesome!
I really love this video!
Thank you!
Thank you for this video Matthew. I've been waiting for a video like this. I will definitely purchase one.
Again, I must say your RUclips channel has been so helpful. Thank you 👏
By the way, is this wireless or cable connected?
Thank you for your kind words and support! And this CarPlay unit is wireless 🙂.
💯💯 good tutorial. I might upgrade and get that in mine
Thank you! I’ve been loving it.
First i just wanted to say thanks for the video! Save me alot of time. I got everything disassemble and plug in about a hour. But what sucks was i trying to put the radio back in and i couldn't! Try to place the black box at the bottom but too much wires and it was bulky so i couldn't push it all the way in. At the end i turn the box sideways and place it at the bottom and my radio was able to go back in, and i put every thing back together. But 2nd sucky part was, i grounded both black wires for the audio like you said and there was alot of distortion noise and buzzing after i put everything back on already lol. So the next day i took the raido back out and checked it again and i decided to disconnect the grounded wire and that noise went away! Lol put everything back and now im happy thanks bro.
Anyone who install this remember 2 options, test sound without grounded black wires first and see if you get any buzzing and distortion noise before wiring them together. I didnt need to wire them. Wire them was worst for me. I learned the hard way after puting everything back on.
Place black box at the bottom but turn it sideways stright across! So the radio will fit back back in. Took me 30 mins trying to fit radio back in. Other then that its worth the money.
I’m glad this video could help! And thank you for explaining your troubleshooting. I hope this info can help others that may have similar issues. And there are definitely a lot of wires to push in, so I get why it could seem impossible to fit it all back with the box on the bottom 😄.
I’m having trouble getting everything to fit any suggestions ? I tried putting it at the bottom but radio won’t go back in all the way. What do you mean by turning the black box sideways straight across?
@@jesusayala1826 Hmm, you should just be able to push all of the wires in the very back and put the box flat on the bottom. It’s a little tight but should all fit in.
*Excellent video!*
Thank you!
We need mod videos frequently
it looks nice
Man you saved me I have the same kit and was confused with the instructions this video made it clear putting mine in a LS460 today 🔥👍🏽
Awesome!! I’m glad I could help clear up some stuff 😁.
Everything is hook up box with switches on it clicks when I hit menu but screen doesn’t change any suggestions?
@@bunkymears1080Hmm, and you’re pressing and holding “menu”?
Yes sir when I hold the menu button it clicks
@@bunkymears1080 Hmm, maybe try experimenting with the toggles. Keep in mind, you have to turn of and on the car for the toggle switch change to take place.
I neeeeeed themmm
Great Vid! I have a GS350 2015 - an awesome car and much better built than today's versions, but what isn't. I bought a carplay kit from a company called Road Trip that looks exactly like what you installed. I don't have mine working yet but getting closer. Your car looks great!
Hopefully you can get it working soon! Thank you for your support. 🙂
How is yours doing? Are you satisfied with how it performs.
@@CheapBastard1988 Mine has been doing great!
Unfortunately I’ll be taking the unit out and returning it for a refund. This particular unit from roadtop cost $230 and was the cheapest unit i could find. It works, but I cannot disengage from CarPlay and return to my Lexus menu. I love CarPlay but this particular unit behaves erratically in my 2015 GS 350. I plan on trying something else in the future. I have a complete video of the installation, maybe I’ll post it sometime.
@@lcDallas Aw man! I’m sorry to hear. Thats weird that you cannot go back to OEM infotainment, mine does that function flawlessly. Anyway, I hope whatever you choose next ends up satisfying your expectations.
Pretty sick dude. I love your Carbon interior pieces too, haven’t seen that for the newer models
Thank you!
@@Grey3IS Where to buy decorative panels and carplay？thanks
literatly with an apple car play radio installed on a your car I bet it feels like a 2024 brand new lexus.
Oh man, it feels so modern!
I’m watching and commenting this video for future reference one day I’ll get an IS and do this 😂
I love that. It’ll happen! 🙌
def considering this for the price! i wanted to stay oem+ and swap to the 2019+ RC radio and console, but it’s way too much money
I completely understand that. I love the design of the RC center console compared to the 14-20 IS.
awesome video. I have the non-nav screen (the smaller screen). Can I upgrade to the bigger nav screen (like yours)?
Thank you! I believe there’s more to it than just swapping the nav screen onto a non-nav system unfortunately. If you really want the bigger screen, it might be worth going the android screen route. But that’s up to you.
Great vid!! Does the apple or google maps still work when you’re switched to the oem Bluetooth? Does it switch the audio source back to the CarPlay module or stay in oem Bluetooth?
Thank you! Everything in the CarPlay module works like normal when you’re connected to the OEM Bluetooth, even maps. It won’t switch you back to the CarPlay audio when on CarPlay. It’ll just give you the audio from your OEM Bluetooth and the infotainment screen of CarPlay. This is exactly what I do.
I was thinking about getting this but I think it would look bad on the 2014s info screen. Next mod you could do is the lowglow kit!! No one else has made a video for install and I meant to make one so I could help out the community when I was doing mine but completely forgot about it 😓 but trust me it’s not a hard install just time consuming and it’s very easy to explain too but no one’s done it
I think if you really want CarPlay, it’s worth it. There’s also android replacement screens out there if you want to get the bigger screen AND CarPlay. And for lowglow, it’s definitely on my radar, but not top of my list. When the time comes, I’ll definitely make an install video 🙂.
i agree 2014 screen is a joke im looking into the lexion screen
I watched the video so well. I wonder if there are any products compatible with 2006~2014 IS.
There are many units out there for the 2IS! I’d read some club Lexus forums about them and see which is the best.
Love this. I have the small nav screen on my 2015 IS Fsport. Really want the larger screen with this. What do you recommend?
Thank you! I then recommend a screen like Kenny added!
ruclips.net/video/sj8bub-VJgg/видео.htmlsi=HZFc77kWHicVJ6cx
Cool I have one this same color. Where did you get the larger screen. Mine is only displays half that size.
Hello! The larger screen is part of the optional NAV package.
First broski
Great video! Is the Carplay Bluetooth audio bad, or is it just unprocessed and not tuned like it is OEM? I'm replacing my Mark Levinson OEM amp with a new amp / DSP. If the raw signal is good then I would think id be fine using the Carplay audio. The new DSP should be able to make it sound just like OEM or better once tuned right? or is the actually signal quality bad through Carplay Bluetooth?
Hello! Good questions and points. After looking into it further and talking to some more people about this unit, you can make it sound pretty good with tuning the sound. After doing some adjustments, you can make it pretty close to OEM Lexus Bluetooth sound.
When is the next video bro I literally sit down and chow on my dinner taking some of your ideas on my 200t
I love that 😄. I do the same thing with others. Hopefully sooner than later 🙂.
Hey Matthew. Thank you for all your videos! Can you let me know which model option you chose? I have the same make and model as you, but it doesn’t show on the website? Would it be just the knob control one?
Hello! Thank you for your support 🙂. I chose the “Framed touchpad and Mouse control”. The last option. I have the little mouse control that’s pictured right under the touchpad in the last selection on their website 🙂.
i only seen the knob control one too when i bought mine back in july now i have to return it bc i have the mouse pad😓
@@PUR3ST4R Aww man! Sorry to hear.
U ever plan on installing the diverter spacer valve from tti
Maybe eventually! I’ll definitely have to make an install guide on it. I’ve heard there are some tight spaces involved in the install 🥹.
This is a actually reasonably priced. All of yhe ones i have seen online are $450 plus so it's at least priced competitively
I can agree with that
Hello sir, do ypu know if this would fix the infamous infotainment issue where the screen goes black and it doesn't turn on for a while? Thank you!
Hmm, I’m not sure about that. If it’s a screen issue and not just the OEM infotainment, then it would probably also affect this CarPlay add-on.
So you stated you could use the factory IS Bluetooth audio for music. So does that work in conjunction with the Carplay Unit while listening to music and using Maps or RUclips for example? So the audio that's coming out regardless of what app you're using would be through OEM Bluetooth?
Yes! So it would be sound that’s technically coming thought the factory Bluetooth, but all functions would be displayed though the CarPlay screen. So CarPlay would function like normal, but the sound quality would just overall be better.
@@Grey3ISOk, so if that's the case couldn't you skip connecting the "ground wire" and "audio ground wire" entirely since you'd be using the factory Bluetooth audio anyways? Or is that still necessary?
When do this update are you still able to keep the OEM software as well, like the whole maps and EQ as well?
Oh yeah! You can switch back to the OEM infotainment at any time. Just long-press the menu button. 🙂
I’m gonna try to install this myself tomorrow and i was wondering how i can connect the 2 ground for audio, u said cut it up and just twist it together, i’m kinda worried that i might mess it up.
Hello! After talking with some other people, it seems as if that might not affect the CarPlay’s audio as much as I thought it would. So, do that if you’d like. I’m not even using the CarPlay’s audio, I’m using the OEM Bluetooth for audio. So, I guess at the end, that didn’t really matter 😄.
I have a 2014 is250 F sport AWD and I am planning on purchasing a CarPlay module but have the small screen area display and need recommendations for the best option for a largest possible replacement upgrade screen. Tia
Oooo, larger screen might be slightly harder with the 21+ IS. They have a whole different surround if I’m not mistaken. Not sure if there are any aftermarket options out there yet. I recommend looking on ClubLexus to see if any folks have done it/ talked about it yet. 🙂
Thank you for this video, I just have an issue maybe u can help. While in carplay if i put the car in reveres and back to drive or park it goes to oem screen and not carplay
Hmm, that’s interesting. Did you do the same setting as mine?
@@Grey3IS yes i did
You tryna do this for me 😂😂❤️
I swear it’s not as bad as it seems 😅.
It seems to be the UI is the same on I bought it from AliExpress. Are you able to add a front camera with this setup?
Many of them look similar to eachother. And you might be able to! It would be as if you’re adding a camera to the OEM head unit. So nothing changes in that aspect.
I am looking forward to purchase an V6 IS or GS350 what would u recommend
It really depends what you’re looking for. The IS is smaller and more sporty. The GS is bigger and more “boaty”/ luxurious. 🙂
When i messed around with installing it, the joystick was controlling both the oem and carplay at the same time. Im assuming in that case ill have to install that joystick connector thing.
Oh interesting!
Great vid man, this looks awesome, but I'm hesitant to go for it for two reasons so I have two questions.
1) is the car's touchpad/knob good enough in navigating apps and menus on the new interface? If I'm on the road and I wanna change like an address or something it might be a pain in the ass.
2) I also ideally would like the screen to be touch screen. If I do get a touch screen, do you think there's anyway to bring the screen closer so I can reach easier or is that totally impossible and wishful thinking? 😅
I know you do a shit ton of mods so would love to get it input on this. Sorry for any stupid questions, I've never had or used carplay/android auto before.
Thank you! And good questions.
1) The knob/ touch controls are pretty good. Definitely not as quick and easy as if it were a touch screen, but they’ve been completely usable for me.
2) I get how you’d want a touch screen, but unfortunately there isn’t a way to make it closer. Which, like you inferred, kinda defeats the purpose of the touch screen 🫤.
I hope this helps 😅.
@@Grey3IS thanks man, I appreciate it. I'll take a chance on using the knob I guess haha
Nice vid! Im planning to install it in my 2017 IS300h. Do you know if its possible to update Android Auto if a newer version occurs?
Thank you! I’d have to DM Tanso and ask for the website. But there’s a site you can go to in order to download a newer version. You connect to the CarPlay unit via the USB port that’s part of the wiring harness. So maybe leave it in a spot that can be semi-easily accessible. 🙂
@@Grey3ISDid you ever DM Tanso to get that website?
@@NamNguyenSE No sir. I recommend shooting them a DM for the website and instructions. 🙂
only preorder available on their site? are they out of stock or preorder is the only way? feels iffy preoridering if its not gonna get shipped right after
They don’t have any in stock right now. Signing up for pre-order puts you on a list to get the unit once they get more in stock. It pretty much secures you a spot 🙂.
Any problems since the install? And are you familiar if this will work for a 2020 RCF? Thanks for any info
It’s been solid! I still use my OEM Bluetooth for audio because it’s better than the CarPlay’s audio (I still use CarPlay like normal though). But that’s the only thing. And yes, it’ll fit the 2020 RCF.
I started watching this thinking alright maybe I’ll be able to do this….. 😂😭😭😭
Wayyyyyy above my ability hahahah I’d be bricking it dismantling everything like that but I still enjoyed watching how it would be done
Haha!! I feel this. This is kinda how I felt along the way. One step after another, until i was like “wow I’m deep into this install”. Not as bad as it might seem though , Lexus makes things easy to take apart/ put back together. But, still a task.
@@Grey3IS sometimes learning along the way is the most effective method 😂😂
I’ve got a used 2018 IS300 F-Sport reserved at a Lexus dealership that I’m hopefully completing the purchase this next weekend so I am trying to learn more about the car and Apple car play was something that would be nice to install but not the biggest deal in the world to me. If I muster up the courage to take it on myself I’ll be sure to have this video on immediate standby
@@guedrini2045 That’s awesome! These are such great cars to own.
Some Lexus dealers can install CarPlay for you actually! They’d use a unit similar to this. Not sure how much they’d charge though 😅.
Pls update on more videos!
So far so good! Used it for 4+ hours on a little day trip today. It worked flawlessly. I’ll definitely post more updates about it.
Can you do a video on how to mirror your phone ?
I’ll look into this!
Where did you get all your carbon fiber overlay and shift knob?
It’s all from tansowerkz.com ! Dont forget to use code GREY3IS at checkout to save 10% 🙂.
You mentioned that audio isn’t very good through CarPlay. Pity. I’m assuming that CarPlay is wireless here and the audio passes through to an AUX out. Can the module interface with the car’s USB port and work like wired CarPlay? If so, is the audio any better that way?
I have tested wired vs wireless CarPlay audio, and prefer wired CarPlay for music.
Not too sure if you can make it wireless. If you have experience with it, I’m sure it’s something that’s probably obvious for you to figure out. But using the OEM Bluetooth for audio has been perfectly fine for me so far 🙂.
Do you control Apple CarPlay Through the Joystick? Does it act like a trackpad kinda?
You use your OEM joystick 🙂
How do you keep it default to the regular lexus audio mine keeps defaulting to carplay so i have to click aux then back to bluetooth every time
Not sure how to make it permanently default, but mine is on Lexus Bluetooth automatically about 70% of the time. There might be a way to force it to stay on that though.
Can you post reverse and if the cars original infotainment shows up
I DM’d you back on Insta! 🙂
Did your centre console creek after putting the everything back?
Hmmm, no it didn’t. You can try adding sound deadening or foam tape between panels to try to prevent this.
Is the force feedback still the same from the joystick after install? Does it still give the little vibration upon selecting an option in OEM mode?
Unfortunately no. It’s just a normal joystick in CarPlay. 🥺
Only in CarPlay mode or also in OEM lexus mode?@@Grey3IS
I can't hear any music unless I'm on AUX and I hear a very whiny noise when I accelerate but if I switch out of AUX no sound will be heard and the whiny noise is gone, it will not play music on original Bluetooth, any tips to fix that?
Hello! Yes, try switching to original Bluetooth.. then, on your phone (in your music app) select your Lexus as the audio output. It’s probably connected to CarPlay by default.
Wonder why the audio would sound better using the oem bt function. Kinda makes this a hard sell for me although it would be nice to have my phones navigation on the screen
Lexus Bluetooth is just going to be slightly better than the aftermarket module. With altering some of the audio setting in the module, you can make the sound quality pretty good. It just won’t be as good/ equivalent to Lexus BT. I think it’s worth it for Waze and Spotify being up there. But at the end of the day, it’s up to you 🙂.
@@Grey3IS I aircraft’s the honest review brother. Been looking for a way to get CarPlay mainly for music and navigation. Was just worried about the audio part. I actually would love to do a custom audio install
@@Undar8ed03 For sure! And it works flawlessly. And if you connect to the Lexus Bluetooth, then use CarPlay like normal, it’s virtually as good as it gets.
does it open apple carplay automatically from start or do u have to set it to aple carplay everytime
It opens automatically!
Does that work with the smaller oem screen for 2017 is200t fsport?
Yes! It’ll orient for the different screen by switching the different toggle switches on the module.
I followed all your directions (great video btw ), but to my frustration can't manage to get the touch pad (in my case it's a joystick /2015 is250 fsport) to work!! Menu or home button doesn't work either but it's receiving power because the light underneath glows. Tried reconnecting the CAN power cable with both dial setup 1 and 2, but neither work. Messaged their customer but haven't hear back yet. What would you try if you were in my position? Keep in mind audio and screen work, I'm receiving a signal for carplay, so everything's connected as it should, but I can't get to the initial setup because the menu button isn't working
Oh man! I’d try different toggle switch combinations. But keep in mind that you have to turn off, then on, the car for the change to take place. You can’t just flip the switches and have it do something. So maybe try that!
@@Grey3IS I went through all toggle switches and then tried #1 as a last resort and go figure that made it work 😅 thanks for the help man. Again best video out there. We appreciate you bro
@@xochiojeda7618 Oh shoot!! Well, I’m glad it worked man. I appreciate your support. Enjoy the CarPlay/ android auto 🙂.
Hi, I'm the owner of the same model, I want to know how many discs can be put in its CD host at the same time?
Good question! I believe just one.
Does this replace the current headunit or infotainment system
No, this is a plug and play device onto your OEM screen.
hi!, this woks on base model with no navigation?
thanks
Hello, yes!
Hi, where did u get the carbon fiber cover for the center console
It was something that Tansowerkz used to sell a long time ago. Best bet is to buy a full console replacement that has been laid in CF (from Elvin on Instagram), or look on eBay for a decent one. Most on eBay aren’t great though 😕.
@@Grey3IS thx!
I wanna get kansei Tandems but would I run into any issues with 18x8.5 +35 offset ?
Ooo, nice! And nope, that should be fine. Thats fairly similar to the OEM rear wheel. You could even do 9in wide if you wanted.
Appreciate the response love the channel 🫶🏽
I'm a little confused about playing the music. Everyone says it doesn't sound great so they switch it back to Lexus, if that's the case, what's the point of doing all of this? I want my spotify and audio to show up on carplay, will this still happen if using the regular way to play audio?
Everything on the CarPlay side still functions like normal. It’s just that the audio is now OEM quality when using Lexus Bluetooth instead of the “CarPlay audio”. Most other CarPlay units utilize the OEM Bluetooth anyways. This one for some reason doesn’t originally. 🙂
do you know if this would work with subwoofers?
Yes! Should function like the normal infotainment in that aspect.
Does anyone know if anybody has retro the trackpad from the RC into a 3IS?
This is a swap that some people do, yeah. You’d probably just choose the trackpad option.
Any issues with audio that you've noticed since installing?
Nope! I’ve been continuing to use the OEM Bluetooth for all audio connection, then CarPlay like normal for the infotainment. It’s been working flawlessly.
Does oem radio receiver have to work in order to run this ?
I would think so, but I’m not positive.
how fast is the bootup to apple carplay when u turn on the car?
About 5-10 seconds.
can we get an update video on the module ??
I can give you an update comment! 😄. It’s been going great! Functioning just like when I installed it. It’s a dream having CarPlay. Couldn’t have another car without it 😅.
Preciate the shoutout bro! @3is_kev here 🙏🏽🙏🏽
I appreciate your advice/ tips!
I’m looking into buying a spoiler for my 2015 is 250 how did you go about installing yours? Was it screwed or glued on? Love your videos
Hello! My spoiler is the optional OEM F Sport spoiler, so it came installed on my car from the factory. For an aftermarket spoiler, 3M tape should be totally fine to install it. Screws or bolts would be overkill.
@@Grey3IS thank you sir
is it smooth like butter or like ghetto 24hz
Pretty smooth!
Hey man I recently installed the CarPlay and everything works like it should, I connect with audio via Bluetooth and it works great but when I use maps and Siri I get no audio from it but I do when I play music
Mine does the same, haven’t figured out why yet.
@@Grey3IS After messing around with the system I found that if you go to the modules settings and turn on the option “Use Bluetooth car channel” Siri and maps have volume like normal
@@brandonphan2437 No way!! Definitely trying this. Thank you.
@@brandonphan2437I tried it, and AMAZING! Normal voice and it connects to Bluetooth only.. and right away. Great find.
@@Grey3IS Glad I was able to help😁
struggling to put the module back im trying to squeeze everything in but its just not going in
Hmm. Try to bundle up all the wires and put them in the very back. Then, lay the module flat on the bottom. Then, slide the head unit back in. It’s definitely a slightly tight squeeze but it’s doable!
Would you say this is one of the best CarPlay systems out there for the IS? I have a 2020 Is 300! Currently looking for a CarPlay system but not sure which to get
It’s definitely nice! There are probably others out there that are equivalent or slightly better. But this is a fairly inexpensive and nice way to get a nice CarPlay infotainment setup.
@@Grey3IS Hey I ordered this product from Tansowerkz around the same time I left this comment, but there have been no updates ever since. I also sent an email about a month ago but still no answer. Are they still in business?
@@brandondo741 Yes, they’re still in business! Just a little slow right now. I recommend shooting them a DM on Instagram.

Yup! Just like normal.
Do the steering wheel controls work?
Yes!
I don't know why but my remote touch will not work at all. I've tried all 4 of the settings for them and my joystick still will not work. I have same size screen as yours. I have the toggle switch currently on 2 and 4. Any advice?
Hmm, that’s weird. 2 and 4 worked perfectly for me. Is your joystick working in the OEM infotainment?
for my 2015 is250 the joystick didn’t work at first either but it worked when i used to joystick extension cable and also in the manual i think it says to flip switch “1” down
@@eljuan2388 I have just taken apart the center console again to test it with what you recommended and yeah same thing happens where it does not want to work. I think at this point I probably got a faulty module. The joystick works fine when I disconnect all the cables and put it back to OEM setup. I've reached out to Tansoworkz about it so hopefully I hear back soon. Once I have solution for this I'll post it here so hopefully this will help anyone else that experiences the same thing.
Andream is the cheapest I believe at $265. But yes this unit looks really good. Sorry Beatsonic but paying $700 plus is bonkers.
There’s an update to roadtop that will allow you to use a mouse cursor feature like the oem Lexus .
I can use the cursor already! What does it change? How do I update? Thank you 🙂
@@Grey3IS How do you enable the use of the cursor?
@@ytdjgw It should work right off the bat!
@@Grey3IS have you changed the dip switch setting between the filming of this video and recently? I have a similar box but no cursor.
@@ytdjgw Ahh gotcha! You just have to follow the rotary dial instructions then.
How did you get the big screen?
You get a larger screen with the OEM Navigation option!
Can you listen to the OEM satellite radio while using carplay?
Haven’t tried this actually 😅.
@@Grey3IS I'll let you know after I install today
It works 😃
any wireless carplay connectivity issues?
Nope! It’s been very quick and easy for me
Got mine around November/ December and it officially stopped working. It would connect then instantly black screen.
Oh man!! I’m sorry to hear that. It might be a defective unit or needs an update. Have you contacted Tansowerkz?

yes, i let the center console connected while is was not in the right place but all the cables were connected, i will test connecting the display and the joystick extension and try different setup dials.. my screen is 8 inch
why do you connect the display adapter cable? Have you got flickering screen?
Im not confident enough to pull my car apart like this. 😅 wya, can you do mine too?
Haha! I swear it’s not as bad as it seems. It just takes a little time to do it all. I recommend picking a day that’s not too hot or cold, putting some music on, and going at it 🙌.
@@Grey3IS I just got my car yesterday. 2015 RC350 F Sport. A shop quoted me $800-1000. I can't see myself paying that after seeing how it's done.
@@alexishill9528 Oooo, yeah. I’d definitely do it yourself. Or find somewhere cheaper 😅.
