i had a few beers last night and thought it would be a good idea to start this project. Now that I'm ready to cut wires this morning I'm having second thoughts. I hesitate because i'm afraid of voiding warranty of something else goes wrong with my nav unit.

My motivation is enabling folder listing for my VAISTech unit.

What say you? Do you think lexus would void my warranty because of this if say for some reason the screen went out or climate controls stopped working, etc..?

 

no one is reporting new screen going out or climate control stop working or anything related. go ahead and start cutting.....

 

yeah if you've already ripped the dash out then finish...don't start a race and go 75% just to quit.

 

I wouldn't worry about the warranty - you've voided it anyway by pulling the dash apart - so just snip away.

 

do you have a non ML nav?

 

Forget the Nav hack, when you sobered up - did you wake up next to someone you now wished you hadn't hit on ???

 

Yeah, why?

 

Ok i did it. I thought the you could also enter destinations while in motion with this hack?

 

cause i have the NON ML system too and when you do your Hack i hope you could tell me if its successful and if you could help me out hehe

 

No. The nav hack does the following:

1) MP3 folder while moving
2) Bluetooth dialing while moving
3) DVDs while driving (if you have ML + NAV)

It does NOT enable destination while driving... If you want that you'll have to get fancy...

 

Well i did it. and it worked :-)

 

Congrats man... Welcome to the club

 

Thanks. My car is 10x cooler now that i have the Vaistech unit and MP3 folder lists while moving.

 

Can someone tell me how to do the hack? I just got my IS350 Tuesday and tried the parking brake mod today - but obviously that isn't enough. Sure would appreciate it!

 

Hey is there anyone in the Los Angeles area who can help me out with these mods? id really appreciate it and can work out some kinda deal with you if you help me out. i am a total n00b when it comes to these things and id rather not **** up my car. Thanks!!! You can message me on here or IM me on AIM (davisatcal)
