Sorry bud I like my FlyAudio way to much to ever sell it. Just give David a call over carlighttrends.com he sells them and is a great guy he knows the FlyAudio backwards and forwards. I would say that your a member of CL and he might give you a discount, that is what I said and he gave me a free camera and free shipping.

Personally I would not buy something like this used I would rather purchase new with a 1 year warranty but that is MHO.

Default How do I find reverse + wore and the Parking - for installation

Initial Impressions:
After getting frustrated at researching a lot online for a kit and aftermarket Nav/Dvd Multimedia system the only superb solution I found was this FlyAudio unit for my 08 IS250.
The installation took about 3 hours for me and my friend to do it since the only hard part was the rearview camera. After installing the unit my impression was “ wow”…. This is a very sophisticated piece that FlyAudio produced which is in everyway superior to an OEM unit. I will explain everything in the video for you guys….

The only cons I found in this unit so far was
---No clock display on the external unit
Below are the temporary bugs it has that FlyAudio said would be upgraded with new software in future.
---Radio frequencies are not on point with original station frequencies
Ex – If your original local station number is 93.9 the station number shown in the display is 94.5~95.1 just couple numbers away. - FIXED
-Temperature is shown in Celsius not Fahrenheit - FIXED
-IPod interface doesn’t have a lot of options.

Overall I am very happy with this unit and they way it performs. Everything I wanted exceeded my expectations. Thanks to FlyAudio for making this system and hope they will fix the bugs above.

Hope you guys enjoy the video!!!Sorry about the quality and some unedited parts lol

Default Rear view Camera for convertable model

I bought the camera from the link as below

I am confused how to run the cable to the back because I have Convertable. the trunk opens both ends. Does anybody has experience to install the rear view camera in convertable IS250. Need help. I can't find the parking brake + also.

Default Stuck on welcome screen

I have a second generation flyaudio unit in my 2006 is250. I bought it from automax service and now a little bit then a year later its having big problems. First the unit started not working on navigation mode it would say path not found. Now it wont turn on at all it only goes to the fly audio welcome screen and then turns off. After about 5-10 seconds it does that again. Can anybody help me fix this? I tried to email the guy mat at automax that i bought it from but that email doesnt exist anymore.

I emailed Carlighttrends, they said the newest update, the clock problem is fixed. I am thinking about getting one. I want to know if anyone has gotten Garmin software onto it yet.

I have tried to find it but so far no luck. Mine came with a Mav system called naviexplore(something like that) and I also wanted to try igo. So if anyone has either please give me a shout too

David from Carlighttrends.com lives in the same town as me, he told me that FlyAudio now comes with iGo Primo, I have been running it for some time now and its amazing software. I like both the original navi software that the FlyAudio used in the past but I like much more iGo Primo.
