Should have just went aftermarket. From my research swapping in nav units into non nav cars costs thousands And problems always arise

Make sure you pushed the harness plugs in all the way.

Hi all , I got the navigation dvd unit working now. There is more feature to the unit then the stock Lexus one. Back up reverse camera. Everything is working fine. It turns on I had to switch the ground wiring on the unit for it to work.

Sounds good. Good luck with your new nav. The back up camera helps to make sure no child, dog etc is behind in your blind spot.

I bought it from this website http://www.lsqbusiness.com/qqxx/enpr...how.asp?id=272. The nav unit works good. The Ac control everything works. For people that said it can't be done. It can be done. You can add nav to a non nav is 250.
