Wow, really great write up

 

very nice mod!

 

HMMMMM....i dunno man thats a thought but im not sure....would depend if they prewired the car for nav or not...so really depends on the harness

screen,nav ecu but the harness is utterly important

thanks man, not half as nice as your car but still

thanks tony......and again not half as nice as yours either sir

 

Thanks for the info .
From the looks of it my harness is way less cluttered.
I will have to see if an old friend will make the harness for me to add as I know he used to do this stuff all the time .

 

no problem but why you wanting to add OEM nav instead of some aftermarket nav? it would be cheaper to do that way....

 

a member on here did this for me, my latest update. i had my remote smoothed into the ashtray along with the bass controller for the stealth look




will get it back and get a better pic soon

 

Thanks for the write up!!! Wish that my car came with Navigation

 

thats some good work u did

 

i wish i had known i coulda removed my OEM one when i did my audio build i woulda DEF gone aftermarket and saved me ALOT of time/$

thanks....seriously u bumping every thread today?

 

well guys i have now updated my disc from 8.1 to 10.1, so far i love the new disc

so im selling the Gen 4 8.1 disc....this wont work for everyone though. IF any members have a gen 4 upgrade and want to buy the 2 year old disc for half the price of a new one PM me its already listed in the LS section but right now noone seems interested as its Nav model specific...

 

Can I use it on my 2003 GS430?

 

Didn't see this post before...how is it you didn't know you couldn't remove the OEM? Or was there a specific feature you didn't know you could retain with an aftermarket unit? I would think having all the climate controls and maintenance info go through it would be my biggest concern...

Doubtful unless you did an upgrade to a gen 4 system like he did.

Good work but this sheet looks like a lot of effort bro, why didnt you just go with an aftermarket double din unit?

 

sure if u did a GEN 4 upgrade like i did...

dunno i just didnt, i didnt know until ck6speed mentioned it halfway through my build. i knew the 98-00 guys could but when i asked bout the 2001+ NOONE had ever done it so noone knew for sure. then chris comes by and goes "OH i did that years ago" and i went as that woulda saved me so much $

sheet? read my answer to mack above.


i gladly would have but NOONE knew for 100% the 2001+ models could have but now its to late as i have already been way past this....

 

Excellent information. I have my eye on a few used Prius nav ECUs just so I can swap it and use the Coastal Tech "LockPick" device to always enable the override mode.
