Thanks for making this video !!!!!! the best one yet to be honest
Carlos Davis You’re welcome! Thank you 🙏🏽
Awesome video! Flawless instructions and you made it seem simple! Thanks for the upload!
You’re welcome! And Thank you 🙏🏽
I just bought a 2010 Is 250 and you convinced me in buying this. Thank you for making this video and keep it up with the great videos. 👍
Thank you! And congrats on your new car 👍🏽
Awesome video bro! Will definitely use this video as a refrence when I order mine and install it! You earned yourself a new subscriber 💪
Thank you very much 🙏🏽
I appreciate it 👊🏽
Great video, man. About to do this install my son's IS today and so happy I found this.
Thank you! Your son will be happy 👍🏾
Good video bro been looking for one like this for a while. Keep them coming
Thank you 🙏🏽
This video is so helpful. I was just at Best Buy looking to get Apple Car Play in my 2010 Lexus IS350. I wondered about the buttons along the info screen (Climate, Audio, Setup, etc.) and if they would still work. I also wondered about the backup camera. I was told there was no Apple Car Play unit that would fit my car. I would have to buy a whole new center console and then buy the Apple Car Play. We also talked about using the Lexus sound system and he told me that I would need something else to get that to work, otherwise I would just have cheap speakers. Not exactly sure what he meant by that. When it was all said and done, I was looking at close to $2,000. Now, after watching your video, I think I could do it myself and even if I couldn't, I could show your video to the installer so he would know what to do. The only thing that you did not address on your video is if the music plays through the Lexus speakers. Lexus has great speakers and I don't want to lose them.
They were right about replacing the whole head unit. There’s an aftermarket head unit that you can find on eBay and Amazon but it doesn’t work like OEM. However, with this Grom Vline system everything stays the same. All you do is adding this Apple CarPlay and Android Auto system to your head unit. As you can see in the video, your back up camera, radio, climate work as normal. I made another video about it and you can check it out. The sound go through the speakers, you don’t have to buy new speakers. I highly recommend to go with this system and have someone install it for you.
@@SlowWhipI think he was talking about losing the Mark Levinson amp. With all android aftermarket head units I’ve seen, you loose the ability to control all the speakers the car comes with and the sound is flat, not rich as intended
Keep making these videos my guy!! Great video
Boss Thank you 🙏🏽 I appreciate it
4:22 - It's epic when he tried to kill the bug in the car and the music stopped 😀😂 - Felt like a scene from a movie. Lol
😂😂
Great Video, I was wandering how they were installed before I went to buy one, this really helped!
Thank you!
I’m happy to hear that this video was helpful
👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾Amazing video Z, appreciate it now im actually about to buy it right now. This made my night
Thank you 🙏🏾 you’ll enjoy it. It’s definitely a big upgrade to the infotainment system
Thanks, looking to possibly add this to my future lexus!
william martella Go for it! I highly recommend it
Me too! I didn't even know they made these! @@SlowWhip Did you ever make a video showing how this works with Android Auto? I'd be interested in seeing that.
@@thecianinator I forgot to make a video about it but I’ll make on sometimes next week.
very informative, also very inspiring posting this with such a stutter. i’ve been dealing with a stutter my whole life and i can’t bring it upon myself to post videos like this.
Thank you 🙏🏾 I’ve been dealing with it my whole life as well. There are good mad bad days. It took me awhile to convince myself to start posting videos.
@@SlowWhip I wish i could find the courage you’ve found my friend! it shows that a stutter really isn’t anything that can gold you back.
my problem is, when i’m speaking or trying to sound professional, and i do eventually stutter, i focus too hard on trying to stop the stutter and it just makes me trip on all the other words.
@@bigguy154 I have the same problem most of the time. Sometimes I have to film the same part over and over until I feel like is presentable. It gets even worse when I have to do a presentation in class. I used to be afraid to speak but I got comfortable over the years and stopped being afraid.
Thanks for your video! It was very helpful to me! 💪🏻🙌🏻
You’re welcome! I’m glad to hear that the video was helpful 👊🏽 🙏🏽
Very informative video! Thank you for the content and the help!
I’m glad to hear this video was helpful. You’re welcome and thank you for watching 🙏🏽
Oh man , thank you so much you helped me a lot 👍🏼👌🏼
You’re welcome!
Brother you the best
Thankyou so much for the video
Thank you 🙏🏽
You’re welcome!
Nice video brother looking forward to more of this awesome content
Thank you 🙏🏽
Great informative video thank you!👍🏽
You’re welcome
Thanks for the great video! I'm getting one today!!
You’re welcome! You will definitely like having that carplay feature 👍🏽
Did u get it is it good and worth the money ?
Wow, that is super cool! Im definitely gonna be getting one of these! I like how it keeps the stock screen and layout. Ive seen the "Tesla screen" swapouts, but im still leary about those as i feel like it makes too many compromises. I may have to consider one these instead. Thank you!
It’s definitely better than Tesla screen in my opinion. You still have all your OEM functionality plus CarPlay. Those Tesla screens look weird to me.
Nice installation video man.
Thank you 🙏🏾
This is a Great Video! I just got a 2012 250 love it, but was wondering how to install CarPlay! GoodStuff.
Thank you 🙏🏽 congrats on your new ride
Thank you for this. Maybe I can do it!
You’re welcome! It’s easy to do, it may look difficult but it isn’t.
I need this for my 2012 lexus is350 f sport. I got the car for $11.5k my man. I struck a solid deal. I sold my other car for $3k the same day I went to go pick up the lexus. So technically the lexus cost me $8.5k. It's a real nice car. All black exterior and interior like yours. I already installed the vland taillights and vland headlights, takeda intake, roof spoiler, f-sport springs for a little better handling. The f-sport exhaust and sway bars are next. But going back to the navigation screen system its so outdated and does not go well inside the car. I will order this right now. Hope everything is well with you man
dying breed Congrats man 👍 You got a good deal man that’s good. I just got my full catback exhaust so I’ll be installing it soon. I didn’t go with F-Sport exhaust because I thought it cost too much for just an axle back. Do you have an Instagram? Plus Grom is having a sale on the unit for the whole month so check them out.
Thank you brotha. I just paid $539 plus tax came out to 579 out the door for the Grom system. Yeah man even one of my girlfriends said the oem stock infotainment navigation system on the car looked old from the 2000s. That was a motive also to upgrade haha. On top of that my business Involves using google maps to get to locations and I was tired of looking at my phone when there is a beautiful screen sitting there. Regarding the exhaust, I will let you tell me what kind of full catback exhaust you got when you release the video on it so you wont spoil it now. The price of the f-sport exhaust is ridiculous bro. $1500 on ebay and to find a used one on offer up or craigslist I have a better chance of winning the lottery. I'm still contemplating on buying it since it's very pricey. I dont have an Instagram bro.
dying breed You can use google earth map as well but I haven’t tested it yet. You can also use waze. I loving the infotainment now lol. I have that car for 5 years now and I only used the gps twice because it’s awful. I did in unboxing video yesterday for my exhaust so it’ll be up in a day. UPS guy showed up while I was installing the GROM system lol
@@SlowWhip nice. Yeah man I woke up today and went to the bathroom seen your RUclips video notification on my phone and I was like its probably the f-sport exhuast he said he was getting. Clicked on it and saw the navigation screen with carplay. I was like what did homie get for the Lex now haha. An hour later I'm ordering the GROM. 5 years was a long time to be stuck with the oem infotainment screen. That thing is very boring so limited. The gps is so old school. But that's cool that you like it so far man. When I buy things for the Lexus I'm also treating myself. I have one question bro, I have the same f-sport rims as you but gunmetal color from factory. Is there any way I can make them black like yours? Reason is becuase they have some scrapes and curb rashes I would like to conceal maybe with the black paint/powder?
dying breed You will love it 👍 mines were gunmetal as well but I painted them. I don’t recommend you to paint them. You can find a place where they can powder coat them for you. That’s what I’m gonna do to my wheels. However, I’m planning on getting 19 inch F-Sport performance wheels, they weight about 20 pounds each, which is lighter than the 18 inch wheels.
Great video. Thanks
Thank you 🙏🏽
Love the video 💯
Thank you 🙏🏽
Great vid good explination. Thank you. Do you think its better to use a grom interface, rather than replace the oem head unit for an aftermaket android screen
Thank you! I think adding grom to your unit is better. I heard these aftermarket Android screens don’t last long plus I don’t like how the look. And you have to remember that you have all your maintenance info, AC control etc on that OEM screen, you don’t wanna lose access to those.
Wow looks dope!
TheAtman 108 Thank you 🙏🏽
Thank you for this ! Your video actually convinced me to pull the trigger. Subbed. How's it holding up ?
No problem! And thank you I appreciate it 🙏🏾
It’s holding up very well. Still no issues after 2 years, just regular updates that grom vline send every couple of months.
Awesome video!
Thank you!
Nice vid bro!
Thank you 🙏🏾
Nice video 👍 keep safe man.
randy kelly Thank you! 🙏🏽 stay safe 👍
Good job, man! Thanks for uploading the video! I’ve just bought the same head unit to replace my non nav media in my IS 250 (2011) and I’m going to order a vline unit. I guess I need to replace the amp as well, but I’m not sure if the system will work with it. My stock stereo system is Pioneer. Can you please say what amplifier (p/n) do you have installed in your car?
Thank you! You don’t need to replace the amp unless there’s something wrong it it. I’m still using my stock pioneer amp that the car came with. The system will work with the stock amp.
Thanks for the video
You’re welcome!
getting an is-f next and this will be my first mod/ Great video man, keep up the good work
Rick Carroll Thank you 🙏🏽 it’s definitely a nice upgrade
Nice job showing the install. What do you think most shops would charge to put one in? Debating picking up a GS350 which I think would be similar.
Thank you! I wouldn’t be surprised if they charge you among $200 to $300 and the installation should be similar.
Nice video, thanks
Thank you 🙏🏽
u a beast
subscribed
Thank you 🙏🏽
great video👍🏿
Thank you 🙏🏽
great video!! has it given any troubles? im thinking of getting one too 💪🏼💪🏼
daniel mivec Thank you bro 🙏🏽 It used to freeze sometimes after the first 3 weeks I installed it then they sent an update and that fixed it. I have another video where I did a full review on it. I love this thing, it’s 100 times better than Lexus infotainment system.
Great video! I ordered mine three days ago, it should be coming later tonight. How has the unit held up?
Thank you 🙏🏽 I have it for almost a year now and it works perfectly fine.
Might do this for my isf.
You should definitely do it. It’s one of the best thing I’ve done to my IS.
Good job brother
Thank you
This is bad ass
Well done
just mag Thank you 🙏🏽
very good video 👍
Thank you!
any issues with it since the installation ,and thank you for a great Vid..
You’re welcome!
Not really! You just have to check for updates once in awhile because the system will be acting up if you don’t do it. It takes about a minute to update it.
Thanks for this, can you use the steering wheel buttons to control Siri and music changes?
Ahh just saw the music change option. I wonder if I can still take calls with the phone call Bluetooth since that audio quality is clear
@@laurynfromtheLAB You’re welcome. Yes you control it with the steering buttons just not Siri. However Siri is already on the screen so all you have to do is tap it, I use it all the time.
Hey man, nice video! I really appreciate the effort going into it. I’ve got a 2006 IS250 and I’m in Australia. Because you’ve been using it for about a month or two, do you think that it’s worth purchasing in the long run? Have there been any issues? In my currency it’ll be more than a thousand dollars so I want to know if it’s actually worth it. Thanks again for the video man, subbed!
Thank you 🙏🏽 I’ve been using it for almost 2 months now and I love it. Yes it freezes sometimes for about a minute but you know nothing is perfect. it’s actually worth it for me because I hate Lexus infotainment system plus I don’t have to be on my phone while driving. If you get it, just make sure to turn off your car Bluetooth phone connection because when you receive a phone call, CarPlay/Android and your car will ring at the same time which get the system confused. Thank you for subscribing 🙏🏽
Wadson Motoring Thank you so much for the fast reply! I’d love to see a more in depth video on how the system is functionally to use such as the time it takes to switch between apps, what it’s like when you click and swipe across to show the fluidity of the device, and also when you catch it with its bugs. You’ve got a lot of potential with this channel due to Marty Motoring selling his IS350, so the RUclips world needs more IS250/350 DIY’s and reviews. Keep on hustling bro, I’ll be sure to check out more of your videos. 🙌🏼🙌🏼
Arr Soul No problem! I’m actually working on a in depth video about the whole system. It should be up soon. Thank you and thank you for watching 🙏🏽
🔥 🔥🔥
Hello , and good video!
Do you know if this would work with the RHD version of the Lexus ? (Import)
Thank you! It should be able to work, go on vline website for more info.
Are your other functions that display like car maintenance heating/cooling, navi etc still available on the original home screen or is everything replaced with the apple car play
Everything remains as normal. All this thing do is add CarPlay and Android Auto to it.
Where u get the sunglasses from.?
They call blenders. I have the links on my channel if you’re interested.
Does you’re factory backup camera work with this set up
Yes as normal
Great video! Would this product work for a 2013 as well?
Thank you! Yes it would
Once you go on their website, select your make and model year then they’ll show the one for your car.
Will this fit a 2013? Great video bro!
This one won’t fit 2013 model year because 2013 IS has the same power cable as 3rd gen IS which is 2014 and up. When you on their website to purchase, just enter the year of your car and they’ll send you the right unit for your 2013. Thank you 🙏🏽
@@SlowWhip thank you, I'll check it out
You’re welcome!
where do you plug the microphone aux port into
You’ll see it in the back of the unit. Right by the USB port.
What year model is your IS ? The 5th gen navigation has a higher resolution and was wondering if it would still look good on the 4th gen Nav (2006 and earlier).
This is a 2011 model year. I believe it has the 5th gen navigation.
Does it make the speakers sound better and could you also hook up subwoofers?
The speakers sound the same and yes you can hook up subwoofers to the car head unit. There are a lot of people out there who installed subwoofers in these cars.
Do these guys make a kit for a 2007-2012 Lexus ES350 ?
I believe they do make them for ES with navigation. Check out their website
Hey bro, after this upgrade, are you able to use that USB from the glove compartment to charge your phone?
Unfortunately you won’t be able to. The vline box is connected through USB connector. You have to unplug the USB connector to plug the vline box. However, vline has its own USB output for you to use.
Does the rearview camera works?
How is navigation?
Does the AC work with this new media system?
Everything works as normal. I did a full review video about the system, it’s on the channel.
Hey I have a question. My is350 only has a radio and no gps. Do you think if I were to install an original gps system it’d keep all the same functionality?
You probably could do that but you’re gonna have to rewire everything so it’s probably better to buy an aftermarket head unit with CarPlay and Android Auto
Nice video can you download the soundcloud app on that
Thanks! I haven’t downloaded SoundCloud app but I’m pretty sure you can
Hi buddy, cool video. How's the sound quality when you're using RUclips?
Thank you! I actually never used RUclips or any other streaming apps on this thing. I just use it for music, nav, and text. Sound quality is good overall but Lexus sound system isn’t that good unless you have Mark Levinson surround sound system.
@@SlowWhip Thanks for reply man, I've got lexus 220d and wondering how sound quality looks like when replace that panel. Is your original cd player still working? Some people say it might not, also when you use Bluetooth is the sound the same like from cd player? I'm just asking, cos I'm waiting for this thing to arrive from China and don't know what to expect. Thanks
Ah, I forgot to add that my question is not about vline, just about the android panel which you have installed instead of original nav or radio panel. Cheers
@@chomanch84 I’m sure the sound will be just as good. Do you have Mark Levinson or not?
@@SlowWhip Tanks for your answer, i think it's just a standard one.
Can you tell me if it will work on my ( LEXUS IS220d)?
They have it for your car, just go to their website. It’s same model but different wires depend on the year of your car.
Hey man, it is great unit to have apple car play but i have two issues. First , my steering wheel´s buttons for make a call and hang up a call do not work. Second when I put my transmission to R, camera works but after that when I put my transsmison back to P,N or D does not go back to grom but i will go straight to factory radio... No idea what can I do.
Honestly I never answer phone calls with the buttons from the steering wheels, I just use the touch screen so I’ll test that and let you know. And when I put the car on D after backing up, it goes straight to carplay so I don’t know why it’s not working. Check if you have a system update available because grom vline send out updates every month and if you don’t do it after a certain time the system starts acting up. I had to do one like 2 days after I installed mine.
Does the backup Camera still show up when you put the car in reverse?
Yes, as normal
How'd u get the button lights green?
The car came like that, it’s factory. I actually wanted to change them to blue but it’ll be too much work.
How have you found reliability of the system? Looks great, but I heard it sometimes can crash and freeze. How has it been for you?
Ollie_I_FPV It did crash and freeze a few times the first week after I installed it. I contacted the guys from Grom and they sent me an update. Plus I figured out that I had to turn off Bluetooth phone and audio from the infotainment system. What happened was when someone call you, Both CarPlay and Bluetooth would ring at the same which confuse the system and make it crash. I have another video about it on the channel. I haven’t have any problems with it since I updated it and turn off Bluetooth from the infotainment system.
@@SlowWhip turn off the bluetooth from the vl2 or the cell phone
@@reggyforest5299 Turn the head unit Bluetooth off. Or you can just disconnect your phone off the head unit and pair it with Vline only.
i assume the parking sensors still work with this unit
Yes the parking sensors and back up camera still work as normal
Bros stutter is crazy
Does this work with the OEM backup camera?
Yes it does
does the reversing camera work w this screen?
Yes, as normal
just got this unit today apple carplay can be a little gitchy at times but the main problem i am having is trying to access AM/FM on the old screen it wont let me access it, the screen just has a bunch of lines going through it.. not sure what it could be
Make sure you turn off your car Bluetooth audio and phone and use only vline. Plus to go back to AM/FM, you have to press the AM/FM button.
@@SlowWhip ive tried that and it still will not work
@@2gr375 Go to settings and click on software update. You might have to update your software because they just sent one out last week.
@@SlowWhip I updated it today it fixed the am/fm issue only problem now that’s really annoying is the Apple car play at one point was really bad today I had to unpair my phone with the unit to get it to work good again. It says “disconnected due to poor connection” it played music for a min and it would glitch the music would cut in and out and then cut off idk what the problems was I hope I didn’t get a Faulty unit
@@2gr375 You should contact grom vline and tell them about the issue. Perhaps they’ll send you a new unit but I think you have to send back the one you have.
Any improvement on audio quality? I’m debating on getting in cause I’m not sure if there’s a dash kit that can replace the stock nav on a 2011 350
Audio quality is alright but it’s not the car, it’s Apple CarPlay. Carplay sound output is just trash. I used carplay in many cars and I experienced the same thing. There’s an aftermarket head unit you can replace it with but I don’t like it because it makes the interior look weird. However it has a lot more features than this. This is just to add CarPlay and android auto to your oem head unit. You can search for that head unit, you may like it.
@@SlowWhip do you know which headunit is it? I’m honestly a car audio freak so I have to have crystal clear music lol
@@akatheunknown4310 lol I’m the same way.
Here’s the video that this guy made about the head unit. There’s one for nav package and one for non nav. Make sure you get the right one.
ruclips.net/video/WrK69WmWr48/видео.html
@@akatheunknown4310 same bro. I like the look of this but I need good audio. Let me know if you’ve found anything good!!
my lexus IS250 doesn’t already have the navigation unit or backup camera how can I get this installed in mine?
I’m not sure how you do it without nav but you can contact Grom vline. They might be able to help you
Another great video! I just bought the VLINE 2 for my 2010 IS350 and waiting for them to ship it to me. Have you had any issues with it? I've read a few comments that some people have had issues with their units. Also, how did you end up routing your wires? Thanks!
Mirz_786 Thank you 🙏🏽 It did freeze a few times after I installed it then I contacted Grom and they told to update the software and I did. I haven’t have any problems with it since then. As you can see in the video, there’s a little pass through in the glove compartment by AC filter. That’s where I rounded the wires.
@@SlowWhip Thanks again! You are my go to guy when doing mods! Pretty much every mod I think of you've already done them! BTW, have you done the ISF Steering ECU and ISF Steering damper mods? If not, you should! It changes the whole steering characteristics of the car
Mirz_786 Thank you very much 🙏🏽 I appreciate it. Oh by the way, they just upgraded to IOS14 so it’ll be even cooler now if you have an iPhone plus there’s a lot more you can do now with CarPlay.
@@SlowWhip You're welcome. I have an Android, so I will be using the Android Auto features. See my last post to you, I was editing it when you replied so you may have missed it. Please see my posts on clublexus regarding replacing the stock EPS ECU with an ISF EPS ECU and installing an ISF Steering damper: www.clublexus.com/forums/is-2nd-gen-2006-2013/947163-my-thoughts-on-installing-an-isf-steering-ecu.html

Worthwhile upgrades!
Mirz_786 Yes I’m planning on doing IS-F steering ECU upgrade and damper. I even have it on my purchase lists lol. I’ll do that whenever I upgrade my whole steering. I’ll be getting carbon fiber steering wheel.
Nice video bro...but 599$ for this unit is damn expensive
Thank you! Yeah it is expensive but I think they brought the price down to $450 now
@@kalva7865 they were having a group sale on Facebook. If you’re part of LEXUS IS FREAKS on Facebook you’ll get a discount. I don’t know if it’s still available. As long as you connect you phone to grom you’ll be fine. Just make sure you turn off your head unit Bluetooth. Your car come with Bluetooth and you won’t need it anymore so turn it off so you can use grom. All phone calls will go through android auto. If you don’t turn your head unit Bluetooth off, both android and your car will ring at the same time when someone call you.
Can you do a video of how to change language please,cant do anything on my radio as its all in japanese language
I’ll make one
@@SlowWhip thanks..cant wait to change the japanese language☺️
I have an 08 IS350 that has the Mark Levinson system. I'm considering upgrading as the stock is outdated. By upgrading to Android/Apple-Carplay, will that affect the Mark Levinson system and sounds?
No it won’t! You’ll be just fine
I wish my IS came Mark Levinson lol
@@SlowWhip Great thanks for confirming
@@Unplugged704 no problem
My current factory unit stops working after a while and the response is slow as well. Do I need to change the complete unit or I can swap the internals to this? Thanks I’m advance
Taran Khetan Can you check if you have an update first? Mine was slow after I installed it but it has been working fine since I updated it. Go to settings and click software and firmware update to see if you need to do it.
Wadson Motoring since mine is in Japanese I’ll need to look at it with a translator. I’ll do that tomorrow and comment. Thanks again
Taran Khetan Okay! You’re welcome
Was your screen touch prior to this device??
Yes it’s a touchscreen audio which makes it easier to use this device.
Reserve camera working?
Yes as normal
👍🏼
Does the reverse cam work?
Yes it does!
Are these good for is250s?
Yes 250 and 350
Can I get this for a base model without a screen?
I’m not too sure but you can contact Grom Vline on their website
Does this work on the Lexus IS F
Yes it does!
Is this Grom with the 8.1 version?
Bearded Chris ISF It’s the newest version that they have.
What happens if you are using Google Maps on CarPlay and then you click the Climate button, then click back to the screen. Does it close Google Maps, or will the route still be active when you switch back to the screen? Thanks
Astrosuns You just have to click back on audio button to go back to CarPlay. It doesn’t close Google map or turn off your music. Your music will still be playing and google or Apple map route will be active.
Wadson Motoring thanks for replying I appreciate it. Do you use the wireless connection? How’s your experience with that, I had read mixed reviews of the wireless connectivity
Astrosuns You’re welcome! Yes I use wireless connection and it works great. Make sure to turn off your Bluetooth audio and phone from the infotainment system and let CarPlay do the job. I think that’s why some people are having problems with the system.
How's your backup camera
Backup camera is fine. It works as normal
Can i use CalPlay via Bluetooth only without cable ?
You can use CarPlay via Bluetooth and cable. Whichever you prefer
Love the video I have a question . Friend of mine has a 2009 Lexus is250 n he has the vline he sold the car but kept it n wanted to give it to me. Will it work in my car. I’m only asking bc on the grom site they have one specifically for the 2010 model n mine is a 2010 is there a reason why?
Yes 2010 to 2012 have different wiring process. That’s because in 2010 Lexus upgraded the infotainment system and added Bluetooth audio. All you need from them is the wire harness for 2010 to 2012 because the actual grom vline unit is the same just different wire. Tell them that you just need the wires for 2010 and up. You don’t even need to talk to them, you can just go on website and buy your cable. Contact me on Instagram I’ll give you more info and part numbers.
Would I be able to order the wiring harness separate if I decided to take my friends vline?
Absolutely love your page by the way big bro you def inspire me to enhance my is250
Will do big bro thank you 🙏
Is it the av cable for back up and front view camera the one I need?
how much is this Vline device?
When I bought mine it was around $600 but they were having a sale so i paid $520. You can check their website.
Does backup camera still work?
Yes it does as normal
Can I install this on my 2009 is250 without navigation system?
No you can’t unfortunately

hey guys, just wondering if this would work with the japan version of the car
Yes it would! Contact Grom on their website
Yes my rhd is250 nav and climate control is defect. Will this just recplace the whole unit?
@@alexrozier6550 This won’t replace your whole unit. You can actually find used head unit for in great condition off eBay and Amazon for cheap instead of buying it new, which is expensive.
