Default Navigation plug and play.......?

I just recently purchased a 2007 IS250 and I want the OEM Navigation unit, If I buy a OEM Navigation unit will it work from just plug and play....? This is the one I saw on ebay......it looks like it would just pop right in but as always...Im sure there is something I will have to do. If someone could help me that would be great! Thanks

I know that there is another harness that you will need. Just not entirely sure. I also have a unit for sale if you need it and I'm local.

Use the search, theres a thread about this already.

I think all 2IS come with the steering wheel controls already. Now would probably be a good time to add an Ipod adapter if you're planning to go that route.

Nope.

Only models that came with Nav have the extra nav-related buttons (like for bluetooth or voice navigation) on the steering wheel

Oh yes, I forgot about those. I was thinking of the audio controls.

very possible to retrofit an OEM navi into your car!

they have aftermarket out there by FlyAudio... not too sure how well it runs.. but looks like installation is pretty much Plug and Play.. as compared to the OEM one.

When you buy it from eBay make sure you remove that blue color box shown in the pic. Your car already has similar box. It's TPMS receiver. If you don't swap out with yours your will get TPMS warning on your dash.
