I'm assuming this does not work for non-navigation 3IS?
I noticed a couple owners ask about it so I tried to do some digging myself. Just found the online manual for the display audio unit (non-navigation): http://drivers.lexus.com/t3Portal/do.../sec_05-01.pdf
They're incredibly vague about why it might not function with a regular 4-pole AUX cable, so I have doubts that it ever works.

Fyi you do not need the bypass to make this work. Just to make it work while driving.
Also, any 4 pole cable will work, you just might have to switch around the cables till you find the right configuration of left audio, right audio, and video.

Yes it will work. I have it working in my 2015 IS 250 F-Sport non-nav. But as they stated, it will only work with the e-brake on. You have to buy the bypass unit in order to get it working while driving.

Was pretty bummed about not having nav, but if this works out nicely it would be great!

For this to work, you don't need the bypass. The bypass is only necessary if you want to use this feature while the car is moving. Everything plugs in through the aux jack in the center console.

Anybody has the exact pin out on the car side? Just bought a Raspberry PI to put in the car and would like minimum wires possible. So if the pin out is like the PI, I'll be able to run a direct 4 poles jack.
