Default My Lexus Gs400 Audio Build Updated!! (Tablet Install)

decided to bring the photos over to the clublexus website.

Check it out if you have time and let me know what you think. I had an older post but couldn't figure out how to update it so I made this one.

Thanks!

The tablet connects to the hotspot from my phone. I haven't had the chance to mess with it too much yet because I have been busy but there is an app that will automatically turn on my hotspot when I get into the car. They also have an LTE version of the tablet if I wanted to go that route. That way I would always have connection to internet no matter what. But to use the LTE I would have to add the device to my phone plan which would be an extra $10 a month. At this point it isn't really worth it when I can just connect with hotspot and use the data that I already pay for. Verizon is already expensive as it is lol
